Still Here...



Ewok Village Update

Forestville, CA

          I decided I would stay another day in the Ewok Village continuing my visit with my friend and mentor. We wandered away from his cabin and went out to Armstrong Redwood Forest where they have some of the biggest trees to hug and admire.

          Cruising through the park on that warm day I noticed a small road and asked where it lead to.  Neither of us had ever been up that road and my friend was up for the adventure of driving the three mile long and winding one lane road up into the air at a 12% grade, so up we went.

          Upon getting to the top, despite Matilda getting all hot about it, we found this incredible view where we spent about an hour in the beauty and the heat before wandering off to the Russian River Pub where we both filled up on some wonderful food and really nice people.

          We finished our day with a stop at Barry’s store for a twelve pack of Dr. Pepper before climbing up the Ewok Mountain and settling down for an evening of more talking.

          Today I leave here and head east towards Yosemite…which according to Google Earth is a four hour drive and two hundred miles away.  Just might have to stop somewhere along the way and take more pictures.

…until next time we meet ‘Traveling Thru The Tonda Zone!’

~Peace~
