We traveled down 101 from Washington State to Oregon to California. In northern California we headed into the state and national Redwood Parks. We had been seeing the trees for awhile, off and on, we couldn't get into one park because motor homes were not allowed, not enough room. The size of the trees is a stretch of my imagination, massive comes to mind. I felt like a very small child.<br />

This is a cathedral group of trees. Redwood trees tend to grow in groups, After many years some groups seem to become one huge tree. And some place I have that photo! In the tall ferns and trees I had to make myself look bigger!<br />

I have always wanted to see the tree where the cars can drive through it. A result of a very early memory of seeing a photo from the 1940s. This is a different tree, but still pretty amazing. The original tree tunnel is farther south in California. We were surprised to be driving through Redwood Groves as far south as, not surprisingly, Redwood Valley, and east a bit too. It seems they were everywhere. Things you don't know when you live in Michigan! They are magical </div>

We are so lucky to be here, the tour was a God send, our motor home would have not be allowed in many areas, no parking, crazy crowded. Paul was happy to observe instead of drive. It is good.<br />

This was our planned meal for Valentine's Day, lobster tails and a steak. During the Marti Gras Parade , Jeff the chef at Roosevelt's talked us into going there for dinner, he called and got us a table. He is nice and a good friend. He bought us the Oyster's Rockefeller appetizer . Which was very good.

Just random parade shots that Paul took. It was a good day for a parade. Very long, lots of decorated golf carts fulled with drunken Winter Texans.

Finally, this week I have the energy to walk down to the beach for a walk. It is close and so convenient. The first time in 8 years I saw the sunrise on the beach. Delightful.

In front of our condo a subdivision of huge beach houses is going up. We were entertained by the metal roofs being put on, the cement work, and most exciting, this guy walking along the scaffolding on the third floor porch area . No safety belt, no ropes, no net. He could have been walking on the ground instead of a wobbly 2 x 4. He just walked, reached up to adjust something, or to the side or under the roof line.<br />
<br />
One of the houses right in front - but not blocking our views yet, is rented for next winter already. Two bedrooms, garage, washer and dryer, etc. For $1,800 a month. They are all duplex at least. The 3 story we don't know about yet . <br />
<br />
This area is having a huge building boom, due to the oil and gas industry boom. During the MLK weekend people were all over the area looking at lots, measuring, taking pictures. Javier and Susan just sold their lot. Massive houses going up at Cinnamon Shores, where the Coastal Living Idea house is.<br />
<br />
Emery and Shirley have rented a 5 bedroom home that was finished last May. The owner has already made $33,000 in rentals.

Just back from the baby holding Marathon. Nice and cozy. By the end of our week Erin Frances was enjoying music and looking around. Big brother Lane was busy with Thomas the Train<br />
We had a wonderful visit and didn't have snow or ice to drive <u>in</u><br />
