Yes I have noticed the differences and yet in some areas they look remarkably similar. Your desert has a great many trees where we have scrub brush and dwarf trees. We have cactus folks mistake for trees like the Joshua Trees which area more cactus than tree. I think we have more natural springs than your desert, not a lot but they are there if you know where to look. problem is with the air so dry the water tends to evaporate before it has a chance to form a stream.Β

Rains have made it more green, I guess.

I enjoyed seeing the native cacti ... they don't exist here (southern Brazil). Great shot.

It definitely has its moments

You mentioned a few places in California and that reminded me of the Napa Valley area around Cloverdale where I spent a bit of time over the years on and off. Have family that lives up and around there. That is beautiful country side if ever there was.Β

Yeah, California is huge. I got to see the entire San Joaquin Valley. I also got to play some really nice pipe organs while there.

Last time I saw a pipe organ was when I was a child and went to Salem Lutheran church in St. Louis

I'm thinking a lot of them came by way of sailing ships in the last century and later by train on the then new transcontinental Β

The ones I am referring to are the movie palace organs.



Even the little ones are giants.



The big ones are very intimidating.

They are Mighty WurliTzer Theatre Pipe Organs made during the late 1920's in Tanawanda, New York.

Now Wurlitzer is a name I have heard since I was a small child

IMO, they are the finest organs to grace the theatre.

Some look like a pilots license maybe required to operate them or one of those NASA boot camps

I can only imagine the sense of creativity and bliss knowing what each switch, pedal and keyboard can do and be able to use them like they were intended to be used. That has got to be a feeling unlike most others.

The power is incredible, since low C on the pedal keys pipes that are sixteen feet long. THese produce a wave of about 16Hz. It can shake a building. One must exercise caution when playing the larger pipes as to avoid resultant harmonics that can actually do damage. No other music instrument possesses the sheer volume, texture, or range of the mighty movie palace organs. They can take you places without leaving your seat. I would say from experience that sitting on that bench is a very profound feeling. It's like flying a 747 solo.
