Oh, don't be fooled, we've got a lot more trucks than cars... this was driving through the rich white neighborhood

But, I had never noticed the variety of trees. It's always just green and green. It reminds me, I went to Colorado when I was younger with a family reunion, and as we were driving about the Rockies in a hotel-airport shuttle I asked our driver/impromptu tour guide, "This area is so beautiful, do you ever get used to it?"

He just said, "Yup, I hardly even notice anymore." It made me a little sad, and I think that one moment made me a little more willing to notice some of the beautiful things around me that I might otherwise overlook as commonplace... Except for tree variety, that is.
