Imy arrived on Tuesday night. Andrew picked her up in Roseburg and they went to a Umpqua valley waterfall and returned to the coast through Myrtle Point and Coquille.
Imy used my camera and she gave me permission to post some of the pictures she took.
Yesterday we got up early and drove to the Redwoods.
We stopped at Crescent city and watched surfers.
We were pretty much the only tourists exploring the "trees of mystery" site. We rode the sky-tram up to the top and admired the view of snow-covered mountains and the rock-studded pacific.
After walking back down we wandered through the crazy Indian museum then went south, 20 miles to Orick so I could attempt to find a piece of monkey-puzzle wood. None of the owners of the "Redwood burls and other exotic woods" places had even heard of a monkey puzzle tree-in spite of the fact that there is a 25 foot high tree on 101, in downtown Orick--a town of 650 people. Go figure.
Today Locke, Imy and I biked the Cedar valley loop. It was cold by the time we got to the saddle. There's a bull at Fergerson ranch who is entertaining with his bellowing and that of the returning echo.
