From listening to what Sam and Ramius have to say about being on the sea I am thinking that watching the weather from there would be a whole new and different experience. Something really wonderful. I would like a little bit of chance to just see it!

You are right about the flat areas. Oddly though, the old place was not in a flat area. It was very hilly, but my house was on a ridge line between 2 streams. So, I was high enough to see all the area north for miles. Couldn't see as far in any other direction but far enough to be good anyway.

Here, I am in the flatest of flat country. But, being in the midst of a city of 100K people, there isn't an opportunity to *see* the weather like in the country. I miss that terribly. And the wind! Oh, how I miss the wind! I love lying in bed at night and hearing the wind blow! -- and having NO light at all shining in my windows at night. having it *really* be dark!

i'm rambling. sorry.

Don't be! I know what you mean!

I live in town right now...not a huge town, but it does mean I can't see the stars like I can out at Dad's. There you can see the Milky Way...like see beyond the closest stars and see the misty light of the stars behind them...and behind those...really puts you in awe of the size of the universe

Sigh...can't wait for my homestead!
