I've got that fresh feeling
I want to walk in an untouched pine forest in the mountains, on a hot sunny day. I'd enter the forest and the sounds of my footsteps would be hushed by the thick padding of pine needles on the ground. All the undergrowth would be cleared out so I could see long distances under the umbrella of pine branches. Bird song would seem far away, and I would feel like the only living creature for miles around.
I'd find a comfortable perch against a tree, take a deep breath of the cool fresh air, and listen. I think that would be nice. More than nice. Necessary, in fact.

Just what I needed to read on a hot sticky day! Thanks Jane! - Zaph
Sounds like a good place to go when meditating.
jane..i went up to the redwood forests a few weeks ago..and the air was so different that you could taste it.
its a pity that we can't have the feeling you describe by just walking out into our backyards at the end of the day.
