Glad you were able to get past that and make the best of it. The afternoon looks perfect and you photos are wonderful. The black squirrel is a beauty!

Loved the petrified forest and your new spot - I too adore when I can end up somewhere that no one else is around. Never have I seen a black squirrel before either!MTWagginhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17823827748782425907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-338475515597614288.post-89004065272351601642015-06-18T05:51:45.539-07:002015-06-18T05:51:45.539-07:00Ahhh the illusive black squirrel!

I am glad the fossil beds turned out so much better than your first stop! I never knew redwoods grew in that area at one time, very cool!Metamorphosis Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07637866156639686101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-338475515597614288.post-40498904178758073582015-06-18T05:43:18.188-07:002015-06-18T05:43:18.188-07:00I was really surprised to read that the cliff dwel...I was really surprised to read that the cliff dwellings were reproductions. I'm sure it was nice to see the designs of the buildings, as you mentioned. But, I really enjoyed learning about the Fossil Park. Petrified wood is so neat. Love the closeup:) How nice to have the area to yourself to just wander, listen, and smell:) Sounds like a perfect afternoon. Great new location!! Thanks for including a photo of Lewis:) He is enjoying the view, also.John and Pam (ohtheplacestheygo.wordpress.com)https://www.blogger.com/profile/10853924678665624403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-338475515597614288.post-84590482176039198762015-06-18T05:08:01.196-07:002015-06-18T05:08:01.196-07:00The "sterilized" cliff dwelling event wo...The "sterilized" cliff dwelling event would have bugged me for sure. Though as you say, being able to get up close an personal with how they were built would have some value. But I LOVE your next stop at the fossil beds. What great photos you took! I can just about feel the peacefulness and solitude of it, and the wonder of the mighty redwoods in petrified form. There's something spiritual about places like that. Stunning sunset! Keep having fun.Tinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13580739049389672271noreply@blogger.com
