We had a great time yesterday at the Redwood National Forest, what an amazing place to see these 1000's of year old trees. We definitely saw the hand of God here...

On the way up, we stopped off to see a little beach off the 101 (PCH) where sea lions and seals come to sun and play (thanks to Candy M. for the recommendation), and it was cool to see the seals playing in the water.

We also saw some of the serious fires that are going on in Northern, CA, and you can see the smokey roads in some of the pictures.

We dropped the trailer at the campground and headed North to Trees of Mystery, a place that has a great selection of redwoods of all types, many of which have been featured in Ripley's Believe it or Not. We saw the largest Family Tree, some candelabra trees, and even took a high air tram ride to the top of the mountain for a birds eye view. As you can see in the photos, we got a good view of a huge Paul Bunyan and Ox out front.

We headed back towards the camper, and stopped off in a little diner (Palm Cafe) in Orick, CA and had a great time. The waiter was really nice, and we had some of the best food we've ever had. If you're ever in that area, a must stop.

The girls couldn't wait to hit the beach, and we found a great one right on the way and spent a couple of hours. You can see my new "office"...what a view.

Off to San Francisco tomorrow!

Yesterday we went and saw supposedly some of the oldest trees in the world. Most of them were very tall. One is in Ripley’s Believe It or Not. It was one you could walk through. We also got to drive through a giant tree. It was real cool.

We had lots of fun in the Redwood National Forest. The coolest part was the Trees of Mystery. It has some really cool and old trees, like the family tree which has trees growing out of it, and many more cool trees.
