The end of October we headed off for a trip to Oregon with my parents. Definitely my favorite state to visit so far- so many trees and so green. We stayed about a week and then headed down through the very top so we could see the famous redwood forest-I can now cross that off my wish list. I am a plant person so this was amazing. You can see the size of the tree in the picture- and yes, those little people are us. The leaves from the trees were huge-pictures can never do it justice. Just try to avoid going when it is cold and rainy! I might have to go back one day in the spring or summer. That has probably been our favorite vacation so far.
