California is a BIG state! We have been here a little over ten days, seen so much and left behind even more untouched. There are so many different states of mind in this state, you really can't classify someone or a place as truly 'Californian'.
Yesterday was probably one of my most enjoyable days of the trip as we went on a hike in Redwoods National Forest. I do hope you enjoy some of the photos, but in no way do they do the area justice. It is incredible to stand among the giants and look into the ravines to see others growing and all complimented by the pre-historic ferns filling in the gaps. The kids enjoyed pretending to see Ewoks while we have sore necks from looking up so much.
The day before was pretty mellow as we did some beach combing in Fort Bragg. An extremely large amount of sea glass is deposited upon it's beaches, which are beautiful enough as there are many of those classic California rocks just off the shore. We seem to time things a little wrong, as we missed some photos of these driving along the shore before heading slightly inland.
Last night we stayed in Crescent City, CA on the beach. Well actually closer to the road than the beach but cold winds all the same. Inland to Oregon today, and sometime we will head back to the coast.
