Going to the redwoods F/U (B/W)

[Speedy]

I did! We all got one choice (I listed them) that everyone else had to live with. And I was the driver/chauffeur of our RV so where I went, everyone else followed.

We had a family trip out west a few years back. My daughter's choice of things to see was a movie studio, my son's, Disneyland, my wife, Sea World, mine, Sequoia National Park. My kids thought my choice so boring. "It's just a bunch of trees, who cares..." At least the Feds thought enough of them at the beginning of the last century to send troops to protect them from the timber companies.

I hope to see the giant Redwoods again before they are all dead.

Hope you dragged the family to a sequoia grove - redwoods are pretty and impressive, the the biggest giant sequoia stops you in your tracks - I've never heard of anyone not being amazed - even the most bored kid on earth.
