Redwood National Park


After their eleven hour drive a good ol' fire roasted hot dog was all those boys needed to be happy

My kids got their hatred of morning from me. I joke that most mornings I am hung over. On this dark and rainy morning, Sid demanded sun glasses to eat breakfast because the lights were too bright.


Ridiculously huge Paul Bunion and his ox Babe... who could resist the urge to take a family portrait?




Our first day out hiking we got to see one of Redwoods wonders, the cute little Banana slug.



The Redwood forest is considered a rain forest



We are standing next to a fallen tree, the base of it is that giant wall to our right

























Skunk cabbage... a plant named because of its skunk like aroma

Grandpa and I want to vacation with all of you next time! What fabulous photos you took. We loved all the pics of the boys! Ronnel and Julie look great! I had to look twice to find all of you with the Paul 'B' statue! We hope you had a great time and we are so pleased you are home safe and sound. Hope to see you soon~
Love to all!!
