Bob and Tina are the reason we headed north through California. Bob and my son John have been friends since middle school on through college. He is now director of the YMCA Camp of the Redwoods in Boulder Creek, CA. It was a little out of our way but well worth it. They are wonderful, warm people. Unbeknownst to us the road to the camp was narrow with lots of twists and turns. Our rig has the scratches to prove it! The camp is as beautiful as Bob said and the story of the Redwood tree is remarkable. I wish I could have recorded and posted Bob's telling of it. Everyone reading this should look on line and become as inspired as I was. We had a great time together and since we all know "the Lord works in mysterious ways." Our meeting definitely had more meaning than we knew at the time. Later posts will explain the truth in this statement. Thank you Bob and Tina.

When we come back again we'll leave our rig in town although I will miss our camping site. LOL
