This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I moved to Utah and a lot of towns cities straddle mountains like this where the town is in the valley next to the mountains. It's very cool, but Id take forests over a view. I find being surrounded by woods much more comforting than high desert with a view but I guess that just depends on where you grew up.
The thing about forests around cities is they tend to get cut down and paved over. That’s much harder to do with mountains.
