A trip to far northern coastal Calif, and lower Oregon, during the winter Comb the beaches, look for sea life of all kinds, look at erosion made from nature.

The great winter cold fronts hit the coast, seeing up close as the storm makers (the Allutions)(I know not spelled correctly) dump the first winter hits upon this area, its fabulous, the power, the majesty, (not the cold part haha!)

Climbing high of the hiway 1 looking at the part of the redwoods few ever see, watching as they (as they have for hundred of years)withstand this onslaught of nature, yet they still stand.

This year a family of 4 will leave Dallas on July 5 (got to get out of the heat) travel to Sacramento by plane, then by car through the center of Calif. crossing over the mountains towards the pacific on old Hiway 36.

I will try my best to get pictures of the strip mining of trees (redwoods) it’s effects on the land as well as local feelings from loggers ect. that he spotted owl has stopped.
