Pacific Coast Highway, California

Napa Valley

Napa Valley, CA was a nice day trip near San Francisco. Really quite enjoyable. It was hard to go wrong, everyone was super friendly and helpful. 

Big Sur

Big Sur, California. WOW! One of the prettiest places I've ever been. I enjoyed relaxing on the beach for a while. Mia enjoyed the nature walking and seeing the ocean over the cliffs.

Big Sur is a fantastic area along the California coast.

Driving through a tree

I fun little stop over during our drive up the California coast.

Redwood Forest

The Redwoods! WOW they are big! They are located all over California. Whether you're doing the coastal region or the east side near Yosemite you can see Redwoods. The really great Redwood area is just south of Yosemite national park.

We got to stand inside one of the trees (see picture below) and look up.

It's hard to get the scope of how tall they really are so I took the picture to the left. Keep in mind this is just an average Redwood, this isn't an especially big one.

July 4th

Happy July 4th Everybody!

Los Angeles take two

 I had fun with the lighting and palm trees on this stop through LA.

Yosemite

People don't talk about Yosemite National Park enough. This place is Beautiful and very user friendly. You can see all the sites handicapped or not. It is absolutely gorgeous and takes little to no effort to see. Of course there is hiking and camping if you want to. 

At some National parks you have to Hike to get to the great views, not is is not a requirement for Yosemite.

Crater Moon, Idaho

I never really figured out why this place was called crater of the moon, however it was a nice break in the scenery. It's Lava fields in the middle of no where.

Reno

Lake Tahoe

Lake Tahoe is quite beautiful. It's what I've always heard, and it is quite true.
