Ashley Bobby Sea Lions and the Redwoods

We moved to Crescent City several days ago getting ready for the fourth and for Ashley and Bobby to come for a visit.  Ashley and Bobby flew into Medford, OR. and drove to here on Friday night.  We went to the Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Park and the Stout Memorial Grove on Saturday.  We traveled the famous Howland Hills Rd and observed the redwood trees there which were as big as the one in the grove.We took a mile hike through the grove  and climbed inside trees  that were standing and climbed on those that had fallen.  We then went to Crescent city and walked on their beach and saw the lighthouse and some Sea Lions swimming  in the cove.  We also came to one place on the beach where they were flying big kites and that was fun to watch for awhile.
