A Nature Walk Among the Portula Redwoods while Hablaring in Spanish

Me amongst the big red trees

Ugg! A big, fat, yellow, ugly banana slug!!!! Mikey thought dad would enjoy this, after all Santa Cruz's mascot is a banana-slug

Mere and The Heathen, so hard core. Watch out Machu Picchu

Some wild blackberries! There were all along the trail for a small stretch. I ate several in honor of you Papa Page! Mmm, if only I had brought along some oatmeal with me.....I figure if I'm living in California for the summer, I might as well become a tree hugger....at least for a few months

We woke up early okay?

Mikey is trying to choke me, just look how happy she is about it
