I liked the clean air too -- wish we had more of that here; it's cold right now, but it is as clean and crisp as it could be.

I've been revising and my characters are indeed rolling their eyes and sighing far too much. I may be visiting here a lot more...

Happy New Year!

Thanks, Christy!

Yeah, it's probably about an hour for me, too. the hardest ones are the places I haven't been, or haven't visited in a long time. Since I'm fairly sure Angela hasn't been to the rainforest, either, that one should be a little sparse. :)

Becca’s probably faster than me…maybe an hour? I struggle on the similies and metaphors. Some days they come, bam, just like that, other times…I have to yank them out of the imaginative ooze.

Hi guys,

You really don't waste time getting back to business. Thanks for amazing descriptions. How long does it take you to make these lists?

Thanks, Marian! Clean air–sad to think that some day we may need a record of it to remind us what it was really like.

There are some lovely turns of phrase here. I especially like, “the air tasted clean, as if it had just been loosed upon the world.” That’s exactly what clean, crisp winter air feels like.
