in response

i came across this poem (actually it's just an excerpt) and thought it was cool...it'd make john denver or thoreau proud i'm sure.
"There is a pleasure in the pathless woods;
There is a rapture on the lonely shore;
There is society, where none intrudes,
By the deep sea, and music its roar;
I love not man the less, but Nature more."

some dude named lord byron wrote it. i really like the last line there...good times.

I like that poem. It brings pictures to my mind of places I've been and loved.

I think you would get along well with Byron. He was a real ladies man.
