Rain Forrest

I had an awesome trip to the Olympic Rain Forrest here in Washington State. It was so beautiful, you can't even imagine what is like until you have been in the midst of it. The moss growing off the trees, the waterfalls flowing down the stream, and the smell in the air. The moss drapping off the trees, becoming a part of the tree was an awesome sight to see. The waterfalls, going down into the crystal blue water, hearing the sound of the water hitting onto the stream that was down below, was an inspiring experience for me. I felt so at peace there. The air was so clean, so pure, nothing like the city air here in Vancouver Washington. I learned a lot of interesting facts going to the Olympic National forrest near Aberdeen Washington, first that Washington state has the only rain forrest in the USA. It is sad that we are not protecting it, that we are not appreciating it's magnificiant beauty, it's purpose, and it's creation.
