I'm vacationing on Cape May, NJ.
The landcape is very different.
How?
To begin with, it's flat as a pancake.You get used to mountains in the distance in the Bay Area, but without them the horizon is very far away. I get a little nervous, it's so far away.
It's green green, green.
There are long stretches of lawn that live without irrigation. Not a redwood in sight. Hydrangea bushes here are as large as Volvo station wagons. Mosquitoes are plentiful too, unfortunately. There is a lot of marshland growth, cattails and reeds and lily pads, and pine trees and maples. Not a redwood or a California poppy in sight.
There are lots of evergreen trees like hemlock and cedar.
