Day Trip Free Weekend



Last weekend we took a day trip with the boys and a neighborhood friend.

Christopher is going to a baseball camp all this week up at Sonoma State. So David decide we should take a ride up to the Collage to see where is is so if by any chance I might have to drive him up there during the week.


While up north we had heard of a Petrified Forest near Calistoga. We went to check it out.

Matthew kicks to see if hard has rock.




Matthew ouch! looks like wood but it is hard as stone.



This is the petrified wood before cleaning process.


David saw this from around the turn in the path and almost freaked out thought is was a real miner and his mule.


Great shot of the area and the beautiful scenery of the petrified wood.


Queen of the forest California Coastal Redwood. Matthew and friend left of tree.



Boys where getting bored so David gave them something to do.

Hear, see and speak on evil.

Carvings can be seen trough out the trail this was one of my favorites.


This is Old Faithful of California , David almost missed the first shot of water Matthew going to find him.



Not as huge has Old Faithful in Yellowstone but nice to see, it goes
off more often, every ten or fifteen minutes.


Time to go boys tried and ready to go home.
