We’re in Flagstaff.

Tomorrow, if all goes well, we’ll see the big big drainage channel.

Heh heh heh

Spiderboy was completely oblivious. When we stopped, he asked “where are we”?

Go look. We were parked 30 feet from the South Rim.

One of my favorite pictures of Hobbit Lass is when she threw a snowball into that drainage ditch. She doesn’t even remember it. :^{

Bittygirl saw all of the coins from folks using it as a giant wishing well.

“Need to pick it up” she said.

Batten down the hatches. Looks like you’re either getting bad weather or already got it. Let us know.

It was a big yawn over here. I even spent some time storm spotting to assist.

Monterey CA

The Spanish Custom House

On a HUGH anchor in front of the maritime museum.

We enjoy the view of the tall ship Lynx showing off from Rappa's at the end of Fishermans Wharf.

Bittygirl takes a stroll. Not pink purse, it is a common theme...

The kids see some bloody large trees at Calaveras Big Trees state park. Note this is 50 miles from where I grew up.

All the world's a stage, er, the stage is the size of the world.

The base of the log is to the left. Note small pine trees grown between stump and log.

This is a single tree.

Helloooooooo in there

From the other end

Dewd, you could drive a model T through here

Playing in the Sierra snow near my hometown. It was well above 50 degrees here.

A little bit downhill. At about 6,000 feet elevation.

We move on the the High Desert near grandpa's house.

Note to self, it's not just beach sand, Bittygirl doesn't like any sand other than her sandbox.

World's largest Joshua Tree
