Sequoia National Park






So, we are finally starting to get settled and Mark has these big plans to take us up to Sequoia National Park. It's great idea, however he never plans these kind of trips in advance. The other problem is 4 of the 5 in the family get very very car sick on curvey roads. ( I'm sure you can figure out who isn't carsick!! ) There were a few promises made before we left, 1. Bathrooms 2. A place to stop since for food and drinks ( since he was planning last minute and we didn't have stuff to take with us ) 3. An hour drive that did not have hair pin turns.
Needless to say, It was about a 2 hour drive, no bathrooms, no services past the hour and a half of hair pin turns. I love it when I'm right. After about 30 min.'s my stomach finally stopped shaking and I could enjoy the beautiful atmosphere. Moral of the story always do your research on a trip even when Mark says " I'm positive, trust me, I've done the research!"

I'm so glad you're doing this! The pictures are awesome (of course). I like the change to your title, too. Very cute (and funny, too).

I've got you bookmarked now. My OCD will be in full force as I check your blog along with all my other regulars.

OK I can totally relate to the whole research thing. I have learned to do my reasearch with Todd as well. I do it then slowly make comments and suggestions and either we end up doing it my way or I always get to say "I told you so"
