Day 31: Redwood Forest to Samuel P. Taylor, CA, July 30, 2017

After sleeping in, we read books and slowly packed up. We along a the Newton Druid scenic byway. We saw a sign for a hike called Big Tree and did it. We saw a giant tree and even more giant trees. I got to climb in the middle of trees. We drove to Trinidad to have lunch at the Deli since all other restaurants were so crowded on a beautiful Sunday afternoon. We drove to our campsite and had s'mores which were very good, even though we didn't have graham crackers.

In awe of the big trees!

Climbing through the trees!

Standing in the middle of the tree!

So happy in the trees!

Insanely tall trees!

They kept getting bigger!

Leia is hunting chipmunks!

I love this!!

I feel so small!

Just an amazing place!!

  1. John Steinbeck wrote a book called, "Travels With Charley". In it, he said he thought Charley would find peeing on a giant tree (dog)life changing. But Charley wouldn't pee on the tree; perhaps it didn't register as a "tree" :)
