Natural most of the time just because the traffic is great for motorcycling.Manmade when just need to see it up close and personal,usually not very often just because of traffic.The wife and I are bonefide country folk.

It looks like you and I have done some similar traveling over the years. A few years ago my son and I walked the stairs of the Eifel Tower. It was truly amazing, as was the view fro the observation deck. Still it only begins to approach the view in Glacier National park or even my local Badlands.

It is amazing on what man has created however I think it is more amazing on what was created naturally. I think I’ll take the natural beauty choice.

To me beauty is beauty no matter the form. As I've gotten older, I have truly learned to marvel in things I never paid attention to when I was younger. The beauty of the mountains, and the smell of the freshly dampened cedar trees on my ride to work in the morning, the New York City skyline and the Kansas City Missouri arch when all lit up at night. The beautiful young woman behind the grocery store cash register as well as the silver haired beauty walking beside me. The birth of children. Beauty is everywhere, you just need to look. At this stage in life, I don't want to miss a single thing. Even as morbid as it may sound, watching the gentleness of my 10 year old as he took his dying friend Butter Cup the 3 year old long haired hampster out of the cage and just sat there for hours last night calming her until she peacefully passed. I'm in awe of it all every day!
