Redwoods







One of the main reasons we wanted to drive to California was to see the Redwoods. Chuck pointed out to me that we had seen them before -- 43 years ago to be exact -- on our honeymoon trip. Who could remember THAT??? The trees are close to the northern CA coast and the state and national parks have combined to provide good viewing for them. They are indeed HUGE. We had to wait out some stormy weather to see the ones in the Humboldt Redwood state park, but it was well worth the wait. It was difficult to get good pics in these forests, as it was really dark below these towering giants.
