Grandma Elly told Emily and Nate to go away for the weekend. After much twisting of arms we decided to go.
We didn't exactly know where to go. So we headed north loaded for bear. We were able to sleep in the car a couple nights which made it nice. So first we headed to Ventura for some surf. Driving around that night looking for a place to park the car and sleep we realized how many people sleep in there cars in Ventura. Nate surfed Emily slept. No pictures due to slumbering photographer.
Next stop was the southern Sierra Nevada mountains for some mountain biking.
Emily loves night riding!
On thru the booming town of Johnsondale.
The Sequoias. I think they speak for themselves.
Yes we brought our backpacking gear too. We hiked into Paradise Valley. We have no photo documentation to prove, but Emily loves night hiking too. We saw a bear the first night, which was exciting.
We hiked a little farther up trail and eventually off trail to this nice little campsite with no one around. On the way is where Nate discovered that Emily loves crossing icy cold rivers riddled with slippery moss covered boulders.
Nate not being safe.
We had a good time.
How fun! You sure are adventurous Emily!
