Big Trees

For my birthday this year, we went to the cabin and to a play. On the drive up, we realized that Pieter had never been to Big Trees (how? I don't know; it's 5 miles from the cabin and I've been so many times that I guess I thought we'd taken him) For those of you who don't know, Big Trees is a park where you can see some of the biggest Sequoias in the world! Check out the one below:

They cut it down in the 1800 for an exhibition in New York and built a dance hall on it, using the stump as the floor! It's that huge!

Here are some other pictures we took while exploring...I missed getting a picture of the tree people used to drive their cars through though.
