When Sophie and Louise and I went to Sequoia National Park last week, we walked around Crescent Meadow and Tharp’s Log. Want to see?
That isn’t the meadow or the log or a big tree. It is mosses on a rock. I pet them. They didn’t purr, but I did.
This is the corral by Tharp’s Log. I’ve painted this scene several times, but now the tree is busted off. Whoa. When I talk like an idiot, you know I am tired. I meant the tree was broken. 😎 I’m not showing you the paintings because they are all sold and I don’t want you to feel sad.
However, I do accept commissions.
Both Sophie and Louise remember being able to go inside and see Hale Tharp’s stuff inside. I remember being allowed to go in, but no stuff was left. Now the visitors have to stay outside.
I don’t know these people,  but I took their photo so you can get an idea of how big The Big Trees aka redwoods aka sequoia gigantea really are.
 We had lunch at Wuksachi, which is a lodge without lodging but it does have a restaurant. Okay, it has lodging, but not in the same building.
IÂ don’t get out much. Hence, I was so thrilled with the food (sweet potato fries are the ONLY fried food I like) that I had to take a photo. BUT WAIT! THERE’S MORE!
Check out this dessert. If that doesn’t thrill your little heart, then maybe you get out too much.

Glad you posted the photo of the people by the redwoods. Have never seen the Giant Redwoods before, and this makes me want to see them BAD! 🙂 Maybe someday!
Cheryl, when I was a kid I thought trees like this were just normal, because they were normal to us. Now I am in awe every time I see them!
Diane and Melissa, you should have seen (and tasted) the toffee chocolate kahluah cake – oh my.

Looks yummy to me, all of it!! Love cheesecake!!
Hugs,
Melissa
