...for the trees!!! On Thursday, we drove to Arcata, CA to visit friends Mary and Earl Biehn. 'so much beautiful scenery on the way to this Northern California town (Arcata is 7 miles north of Eureka).
The most spectacular sight of all was the redwood forest located on the Biehn property. Earl and Mary showed the way through the dense 140+ acre woods where we saw countless redwoods -some as high as 300 feet and some with trunks up to 15 feet in diameter.
Mary and Earl (the West Coast version of Doris & Smitty) are wonderful hosts -great food, drink, and laughter (Earl, John: "That reminds me of a joke...").
We drove back home on Saturday with a lunch stop at one of our favorite places: the Sundial Bridge in Redding (see May 12, 2009 post).

That sounds so relaxing! I love old growth forests (minus the spiders that I know are lurking).
