The Left Coast

It is beautiful out here.I certainly will not argue that. I have been mesmerized by things here I have never seen back home. Truth of the matter? BC is gorgeous - breathtakingly, awe-inspiringly beautiful - but it is missing the one thing I love the most about the east coast - the down home people.

I had never seen mountains until this trip. I had never seen the pink tops of mountains as the sun sets on the snow. I had never seen so many people smoking pot. BC life is definitely interesting.

I won't get into too many details here, but suffice it to say I can understand why people come out to visit and decide to move here. It is very easy to become intoxicated by the beauty, relaxed by the resounding presence of mountains and earth, lulled by the ocean, and completely entranced by the second hand dope smoke. The beer isn't bad either.

This is me here, and this is why people never leave. Look behind me.
