2018.07.16-leaving California

These are pics of our last entry while in the California redwoods.  It has been quite an experience for us work camping but the setting was breathtaking.  We're now on our way up the Oregon and Washington coastlines and will have something to post of that visit soon.  Hope you enjoy these as much as we did.

Totally taken by redwood burl


Redwood crazy

More strange redwood as it decomposes

...and the flowers
Jerry thinks these are purple delosperma flowers.

This tree is actually named "The Big Tree"


This river gorge is called "Fern Canyon"

Waterfalls into Fern Canyon

This is a ripe Salmon berry


We think the above are called Fuschias.



This is a ghost redwood; called this because it has no chlorophyll and everything appears white

Notice the twist on this large redwood.  They all grow that way naturally but some appear more pronounced to the eye than others


We think the flowers above are called Orchid Flowers, which bloom all  year long.

The Pudding Creek trestle in Ft Bragg, Ca 

The Carson Mansion in Eureka Ca

White Morning Glories

An explanation of the Carson House versus the Carson Mansion

The Carson House.  We got lucky with a beautiful blue sky in the background



And that's all for this installment.  We plan to post again soon since many pictures are already backing up
