Yep, l can literally see for miles especially when I'm on Loop 375 overlooking NE El Paso. That mountain range in the distance is at least 110 miles away. How far can you see when you look in the distance?

I always can see mountains around here but because I don't drive, I have to get the light rail train to see any further..honestly not sure how far it is but it is quite a way on a lovely clear day. Nice view you have there. Love this song.

I take that view for granted and sometimes forget that what I'm used to seeing isn't obvious to everyone else. I was 10 when dad moved us here and I lived in one of those houses down there. Can you see the houses and the long road?

There's a place where i can see a thing like that when i'm at my parent's farm. Except that it's all green -- no buildings, no vehicles.. just plants, grass, and tress..

Green isn't something we have a lot of in our natural areas unless we happen to actually get a lot of rain. You are lucky your view is so pretty.

Not far at all, because I am surrounded by trees.

Trees are so beautiful. I'm trying to surround my home with them but the climate here isn't friendly enough for all trees so I choose those that are considered weeds in other areas like Chinaberries.

The area where I live is quite hilly so I can't see very far at all.

Can't see too far here in the city but driving the I15 to Vegas you can see the hot desert highway for miles and miles ahead.

That's what it's like here, I think Vegas might be a smidgen greener than we are but still, no trees.
