Upon return from our most recent visit to the Yeatman's glorious abode, I was inspired to look up a few writings from the naturalist John Muir (Harry has a book signed by this late awe-inspiring Scotsman), and the following excerpts caught my fancy:
"I never saw a discontented tree. They grip the ground as though they liked it, and though fast rooted they travel about as far as we do."
"I only went out for a walk and finally concluded to stay out till sundown, for going out, I found, was really going in."
"How glorious a greeting the sun gives the mountains!"
