The mountain ridge that inspired Peter Paul & Mary's song "Puff, the Magic Dragon" The story of the song takes place "by the sea" in a place named "Hanah Lee" It is actually the town of Hanalei, which, is renowned for its marijuana. When you see the whole ridge it does kind of look like a dragon, but I bet the weed they were smoking helped the imagination ;)
Drinking, eating, and swimming all day- Lovin life
