roadtrip: redding to redwood national park

early Thursday evening saw a cousin reunion at uncle p and auntie e's new place:

 
not shy for long
 


dinner
 
and play dinner
the next morning, uncle p and k joined us for a night in the redwoods, a 3 1/2 hour drive - 
 
 
 
 
 
 
beautiful
 
but killer switchbacks when you're towing a trailer =p
 

eager to check out the rv park in Trinidad, CA

could hardly ask for a better site
 
 
exploring the trailer
 
and the campground park
 
first stop: hike into Fern Canyon
elk!
amazing sights along a stream through the canyon.  the kids loved the boardwalks and scrambling over fallen logs, though little man got to be quite a mess
 

quick ocean view on the drive out
 
couldn't resist ;-)
 

along a roadside stop and trail to 'the big tree'
 
it's a big 'un alright
 

a hollow one near the road


 
 
back at camp, getting the grill going

 
 
 
 

s'mores materials
 

inspecting
 
uncle pete and daddy with lapfuls of kids around the campfire.. that pretty much sums it up =)
