We left Sacramento and drove up 101, the Coastal Highway. If you haven't been to the Pacific Northwest, put it on your bucket list.

| We finally had a campfire in Willits CA after hauling firewood from Florida. Everywhere in the SW had burn bans. |
 |
| Babe was a miserable failure as navigator. |
 |
| Our most beautiful campsite (outside of Jones Pond) We stayed at Redwoods RV Park near Cresecent City and 'camped' among the redwoods. |
 |
| Bench from a single tree log. |
 |
| A great roadside attraction; the Trees of Mystery South of Crescent City. We're not sure about Paul Bunyon and Babe, but they made it work with the giant redwoods. |
 |
| The redwoods soared 200-300 feet. Not as majestic as the Sequoias, but more elegant. |
 |
| Just us and a big tree. :-) |
 |
| Coos Bay OR. If you look close, you can see the seals. Very noisey! |

Driving the Coastal Highway through the redwoods was somewhat harrowing. It is a 2 lane road with redwoods on either side. The white edge stripe sometimes went around a tree. It was barely wide enough for us and the logging truck coming the other way. Needless to say, I was almost as nervous a Steve.
