I agree. There is nothing like singing out in nature or to the music of a river or crick....Back home in Bonners I used to crawl over the dyke every summer and sing with the Kootenai River as accompaniment. It was even better after I "discovered" folk music. Also, I would sing with the wind and the birds and the trees as I walked down the trails there and here in St. Helens, OR. Haven't done that in a while though....ill have to again soon.... There is also something (at least to me) magical (maybe not he right word but I can't describe that feeling) singing to a dead town as you stroll through it at 2 or 3 o'clock in the morning and everyone's in bed...Amergin
