Day 7 - Sequoia National Park

We said good-bye to the beautiful ocean today and drove to Sequoia National Park. We hiked to see "General Sherman" - not the tallest or widest tree...but the biggest by volume (not sure what that means) but it was very impressive. We attended a Ranger Talk/Campfire this evening about bears. She told the story about Winnie the Pooh (Grandpa, she told all about the movie we saw at your house in June :). We would love to see a bear - just not have an up close and personal experience with one! We are staying at a nice lodge inside of the park. We just finished dinner in the main lodge and poor sweet Alex is sleeping off a headache in our room. We are at 7,000 feet, so I thinks she just didn't adjust well to the altitude. When we get back, she will be rested and ready for some type of party. The rest of us are real tired and heading to bed! Randy is playing chess with a little boy here in the lodge. We are going to head out tomorrow for a hike to Moro Rock...they have a free shuttle here that takes you to different hikes, so we will take advantage of that and give Jerry a break from the twisty-turny driving that he has been doing for two days. We love you all and miss you! Thanks for "following" us!
