Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park – Felton, California
Let’s face it, my camera couldn’t possibly do justice to these beauties, but it doesn’t mean I sure didn’t try! Henry Cowell is quite close to Santa Cruz (we’d actually intended to do it the same day as Wilder Ranch, but ran out of daylight when we were side tracked by downtown). It has a

Wilder Ranch State Park – Santa Cruz, California
The day after Christmas, we decided to get some Pacific Ocean into the mix. Our original plan had been Ano Nuevo State Park, which has a colony of elephant seals. Because it’s breeding season, you have to go on a guided tour, and because we weren’t sure of the weather, by the time we could

Boston, Massachusetts
We walked a good chunk of the Freedom Trail on Saturday for the first time in decades (between the BF, his brother C, and myself). Finished up with the the Sky Walk Observatory (the 50th floor) at the Prudential Center, which I had never done before. What a great view. I love Boston. It’s so

Fort McClary – Kittery, ME
Yesterday was the kind of crazy beautiful Fall day that makes this my favorite season. It was really warm (record breaking in Portland, in fact), which was a slightly strange juxtaposition with the leaves that have started to turn. Still, I’ll take it when I can get it.

Apple Picking – Bowdoin, ME
My sister and her BF were in from California last week, and since he’s a native Southern Californian, we had to bring him apple picking. I did get some regular old apples, but my big haul were some lovely, bright red crab apples, with which I will be making jelly at some point during the
