Spent the night last night at the Redwood River RV Camp on 101S in California. Did a little sight seeing yesterday. Went to the Tree of Mysteries where we took a gondola ride over the canopy of redwood trees. On the hike up to the gondola ride we saw many "special" trees including the Cathedral tree where many weddings have been preformed over the years. A young couple asked us if we wanted to be married and were surprised when we told them we were honeymooners. Of course, they took our picture in front of the tree. One of the many facts we learned about Redwoods is they do not have a single tap route but gain nourishment from the entire root system. Since it was raining we couldn't see much from the top but it was an amazing experience to ride above the trees.On display on trail was an Indian canoe which had been carved out of a Redwood. The Indians would form a "heart" near the end of the canoe out of the same piece of wood as the canoe.
Today, Sunday, we continued our trip South on Route 1 which was exhilarating and one "not to be missed."
Tonight we are camped across the street from Candlestick Park in an RV park by the same name.
Hopefully, now that Brenda has fixed the comments section you all will be able to let us know what you think.
More Later Janet and Jim
Hey Janet and Jim,
ReplyDeleteWell, you've been from one coast to the other now. Sounds like you are still having fun and seeing some beautiful sights. I hope you're taking lots of pictures. Things are fine here in VA, except that it's cool and drizzly. Tomorrow is election day. Jim, I'm sure Juanita and Joanne will miss you at the polls! There is absolutely no one to get excited about voting for. We missed you at the symphony yesterday. Brenda and Katherine went with us. We all went to Captain Groovy's afterward and had a good time. I'll talk to you soon!
