First off let me just say... we could have never made it all the way here without the GPS.... I LOVE this device... and kudos to whoever invented it.... having said that... sometimes the old girl gets it wrong and takes us into the strangest places... Yesterday after visiting Sequoia National Park... we were EXHAUSTED... and just looking for a place to lay our heads.. so we put in for lodging.. and the GPS took us up and down streets that appeared to go no where... when we finally heard her announcement that we have "reached our destination".. we are sitting at a huge garbage truck place... its dark.. and spooky and I'm pretty sure we passed the Amittyville Horror house.. I attempted to take a pic but someone wouldn't stop the car... (Jack) we made it though... Back to yesterday's adventure.... I love this place... the road you take winds you up the side of a huge mountain with nothing to stop you from going over the edge in most places... the view was spectacular... It actually scared me(kay) more than the Grand Canyon.. and scaredy cat has decided he is not so sure about this trip... This is not the man I married 17 years ago... I don't know what happened but he didn't used to be so scared of heights... There is 4 ft of snow in places throughout the park.... deers stop right next to the car and don't seem to care.... Bears are out of hibernation but we haven't seen one yet.... If you are a nature lover like we are.. this place is worth seeing... you have such a variety of things to look at here... the mountains are spectacular, the water rapids are beautiful... and the trees.. there is no words to describe the feeling you get standing next to them.... I was surprised of how the trees feel to touch them... They are hairy and spongy like.... Kind of remind me of Mr Snuffleupagus on Sesame Street... (I know I'm deranged) I will post more pics later but for the time being heeeerrrrrreeee's Jackie....
