More Calaveras

I figured since we were camping in a place with the name "Big Tree State Park" I should add some pictures of the big trees. This one is the one they cut a hole in to walk through because Yosemite had cut a hole in one of their big trees so people could drive through it. Don't you love competition?




This is how Jonah spent most of the hikes. We borrowed this carrier from our friends and he'd stay back there. Except we discovered he gets motion sickness and we think the carrier didn't help that. He never got sick on us, just in the car. Thank goodness. As we would hike along, sometimes I'd sing to help keep the kids motivated and if he was on my back, he'd lean close to my ear and sing with us. "la,la,la,la,la" It was really cute.



This is me walking through a fallen seqouia. Pretty cool, huh! Gives you an idea of just how big these trees are.










And lastly (for Calaveras), here is Dan standing on a Seqouia that was cut down years and years ago. They actually used this as a stage for awhile. I have lots more to post on this trip and this summer, but if I post everything today, then what will I have to post tomorrow for Mel to read. ;-)
