William and Maymie Kimes Annotation

""Coming down from the mountains to the sea makes a grand change in the flow of one's life. For leafy woods, with their flowers and fruits, we have drifting tangle and dulse; for granite domes, types of permanence, water-waves heaving in eternal earthquake, and the narrow bondage of a ship's deck for the wide freedom and wealth of the landscape."" Muir observes and records numerous evidences of the glacial origin of Vancouver Island and the surrounding region.
