big basin redwood forest

The camping trip to Big Basin Redwood Forest was a success!  Lucy and I, camping novices, remembered flash lights and utensils this time. We went for a stunning day hike through old growth redwood forests, roasted tomatoes and fresh cloves of garlic, and drank a sampling of sam adams seasonal beers. Della provided the veteran camping knowledge and taught lulu and I to build a fire. The end of October means the end of Indian summer. I'd love to squeeze in one more camping trip before the rain starts.
