I am blessed with grand and beautiful surroundings.  Plenty of room to stretch the eyes, to see weather coming, and observe fantastic sunrises and sunsets, but without the awful feeling (I think) of flat infinity.  These magnificent mountains create a visual boundary all the way around.  I would find it difficult to live in a totally flat landscape.  I love these mountains!  The only thing I miss by living and working on such flat land is the fitness I had from running up, down, and around the hill country, and the joy of standing at the top and looking out over the country below.  Can't have everything, I suppose.
