Yeah, me too. Don't do that! I thought maybe you'd killed a GXP! I would've cried!

CA 's sequoias are monstrous and beautiful. The GXP had a good time twisting up the canyon roads too! And we showed that tree who's boss!

Was this the Mariposa grove at Wawona, south of Yosemite? If so, they definitely are beautiful. I love the hotel at Wawona, too.

Just as much fun is Calaveras Big Trees State Park. Like Mariposa, there are Sequoias everywhere. BUT there are no roads, low foot traffic, and no ropes to keep you from setting yourself up right beside the tree for a pic. :)

I visited the Sequoia National Park, home of the largest tree on the planet, namely, General Sherman. It's south of Yosemite passing a lil town known as Three Rivers.

Yikes! That's terrible to see. I hope there weren't fatalities. I survived a similar-looking car accident while driving a 99 Z28... ended up in someone's front yard.

Well, just think about my incredibly sound logic over the past say, 2 years. There's your answer.

How'd you get the beans above the frank? And I was thinking your odd behavior was due to the Keystone Light.


Still glad you somehow managed to hit 30...
