Holy Cow!....Huge Tree's


There's no way we could live in California for three months without visiting the famous Redwood Forest! Talk about amazing...I don't think these pictures can portray how big these trees really are!  

To get to this park we had to climb the nauseatingly curvy Santa Cruz mountain roads.

The road was only big enough for one car to fit on the road, it was a crazy route but I would say it was well worth the upset stomach when we reached the end result!






If we were ever caught in the wilderness during a torrential down pour...I would want to be somewhere with these large hollow trees!  They would be the perfect place to wait out the store.
I'm really considering taking up a modeling career....haha! 
From the Big Basin Redwood Forest we traveled 40minutes down the the other side of the Santa Cruz mountains to......
 The Beach!

The Earth is truly an amazing place! One minute we are standing in a forest gazing up at the tallest trees ever, and then down the road we are sitting on the beach looking out at the horizon! When we first found out we were coming to California for Sheldon's internship I was really sad and scared to leave my home states! (Utah and Idaho)  I still miss them...but we've been able to find parts of California that we love! Gods creations are beautiful were ever you go....and I'm starting to realize that! I'm so grateful for the opportunity we've had to experience this part of the country.
