Trees clean out more than just the air

Thanks go to my friend Alan M for this great shot!!

I drove down past the Otway Ranges, running some workshops (one of the jobs I do) earlier this week, and I have to say our timber and dairy country down that way is really to die for.  With all this rain, it was so lush and idyllic.

On my return I feel so reinvigorated (and my walks weren't very long!) There really is something in the air out that way that cleans you out. Actually, the atmosphere reminded me of a Twin Peaks film, minus the log lady and the owls.

Highly recommended.   The air just isn't like anything we get in the city. Please note that the photo isn't actually a shot of the Otways, but from Kinglake.
