The Redwoods

Most of the historic redwoods are in the "Land of the Giants"
off historic highway 101. Of course this is the well known
"drive-thru" tree. I miscalculated this days travel time. It took
much longer to get to the redwoods and our condo was more like
five hours south instead of two hours. oops! :( We didn't get to
our condo in Clear Lake until 11:00 pm.... Oh well, the drive was
beautiful and getting there from Lincoln City was filled with
one stop after another. Too many places to see and experience!



This picture is just to give you an idea of how large these trees
really are. This one was right next to the road. There were
areas to pull off and walk a shot distance to really big trees



The road going thru "Land of the Giants" was really good but narrow.
The trees came right to the roadway. They are so tall even with daylight
in among the tall trees it is still like night time. It was hard to get a
good picture, Sorry!
