We kept saying over and over "its so ... BIG ... here." It never really got un-BIG either. I suppose people eventually get used to it? Did you? It seriously made me want to take up making art.

That was one of the first things I noticed about AZ when I visited Brad back in ... '95 (too long ago!)
And actually, each time I went back, I remember getting off the plane going....' wow! so much sky! '.

Same feeling in Hawaii.
Maybe the 'big sky' feeling goes along with the nice weather conditions all year long.

During a trip to Seattle with my mom, I remember feeling like I was back in Rochester, it was grey, and cloudy. With low lying clouds. I know, Rochester isn't like that all the time. It just seems that way. :-)
Glad you had a safe trip - except for those 'ghost feelings' you mentioned.

I read somewhere that Rochester gets fewer sunny days than Seattle, but, can that possibly be true!?! (Scary!)

I don't remember that feeling so much about AZ, and I've never been lucky enough to visit Hawaii (yet! :)... which island did you go to there?
