Dead volcano, with lake.  Lots of dead volcanos in
Hawaii and NZ, and several active ones too.  Lots of
lakes in Calif.  Big Bear Lake, Lake Arrowhead, Lake
Mead, to name a few.

But don't forget, Lainie, Mount St. Helens ...

Caid is the home of ACRES OF BOOKS, JANET JARVITS COOK
BOOKS, COOKS LIBRARY [a cookbook store], THE BODHI
TREE BOOKSTORE, just to name a few.  Plus the
University of California at Santa Barbara has a large
collection of historic cookbooks, donated to them by
Julia Child.

And I raise you, Lainie, kayaking on the Kern River,
snorkling for abalone off Catalina, surfing in both
California and Hawaii.  Bay Watch Babes and Hawaiian
Hula Girls.  Sunsets of great beauty.  Majestic
Sequoia trees.  The Glaciers and Fjords of New
Zealand.
