Happy Caturday!

OKCtoPDX in OH

Hello again everybody! Well that was a longer hiatus than originally expected, sorry guys. One half of the OKCtoPDX team spent most of October in Ohio taking of some stuff and doing very Ohio-y things like enjoying fall foliage, eating pumpkin spice cookies, and watching Ohio State lose to Wisconsin. Then the same half manged to pick up a nasty cold which is now on the run, thus allowing OKCtoPDX to get back to the very important task of blogging.

Brief Break

okctopdx is entertaining some out of town guests and will return in a couple weeks. Until we return enjoy this Peter approved "SNL: TV Funhouse" classic. "Don't question it, just do it!"

Happy Caturday!

Into the Woods

Phase two of our epic trip was a journey to the Redwood National Park. This area of extreme northwest California has many state and national forests. The Redwood National Park is more a collection of these forests/parks as opposed to a discrete park.

There are many trails and dirt roads to hike/drive. Due to time constrains, we desided to stay on main routes. U.S. 101 winds through this area, so you can take in much of the views from the car. We did take a scenic route (Newton B. Drury Scenic Pkwy). Along this parkway, we happened upon the Big Tree Wayside.





















This picture shows the Big Tree. We were not disappointed. The paper sign, in front of the tree, states that this tree is 287 feet tall and has a circumference is 68 feet. This tree is approximately 1,500 years old!
