June Trip - Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park

We camped at Henry Cowell Redwoods SP just 5 miles from downtown Santa Cruz.

We arrived at the campground around 7:30 pm Saturday. As we drove to our space we saw a teardrop trailer. When we walked around camp the next day the teardrop was there all alone.. it had business cards on it from http://www.vacationsinacan.com

Sunday we drove into Santa Cruz and met up with our Sister in law Stepheni and took our dogs for a walk on the beach and let them play in the water. Missy loved it and slept very well that night.

That evening Nathan's brother Jared joined us after work at camp for dinner and a campfire. It was great to hang out and spend time with Jared & Steph.

May Trip - Yosemite part 2

We drove from Groveland to Yosemite just over an hour.

After spending time on the valley floor for a few hours it was getting hot around , We decided to go to higher ground and head to Glacier Point.

Glacier Point is on the south wall of Yosemite Valley at an elevation of 7,214 ft

After it cooled down in the valley we went to the lower Yosemite Falls

May Trip - Yosemite part 1

We spent the weekend at Yosemite Pines RV Park in Groveland, CA


The drive to the RV park took about 2.5 hours. We enjoyed the drive up into Gold Counrty. Just past Oakdale, CA we saw a T@B Clamshell on the side of the road for sale ( too much traffic to stop and get a picture)When we arrived the weather was close to 100°.

Our space at the RV park was nice (Water/Electric) we set up the Tab tent for the first time, it was great to have some extra space. We also have the Tab Awning and a Coleman 14 Event Sun Shelter. We will use the Sun Shelter to cover more area when we spend more time at one location.

The park managers came by our area and remarked that the tent was larger then the trailer.

And no note to say ooh sorry for the damage to your 4 month old cute Tab.. uuugghh
