Tree Hugging!

Today we decided to go on an outing to Big Basin, which is a beautiful National Park full of Redwoods. Last time S and I went there, Maya was but a gleam in the eye. We both remembered a pleasant hike through the forest and up to some amazing views of the Pacific. Well, we didn't make it quite that far this time - Maya's legs are still little, but she's a bit heavy for carrying all the way in 90+ degree heat!

First things first - let's give the trees some love! Maya could hardly wait to finish her lunchtime sandwich so that she could go hug a tree.



The highlight for Maya was definitely finding an area of fallen trees and playing house in the roots and hollow trunks.





I vote that next time we go, we do it in somewhat cooler weather ;)

you are a marvelous photographer. We liked all the pictures , specially , where Maya is sitting in the hollow trunk of a tree.
very cute one, the way she looks at the camera.
