Connecticut / New England

We went to see Cynda and Ben in Connecticut. We saw their apartment and what their lives were like. We then drove through New England to see the leaves change. We stayed in a B & B one night, went to New Hampshire, visited Concord and Lexington where the Revolutionary war started, Plymouth Rock. We then met up with Erin and Warren in NYC for two days. Great time, thanks Ben & Cynda for driving us around!!!!

Sequoia National Park

We had the grand kids come to Bakersfield (they did bring their parents - Nate and Stacie along). We went to Sequoia and did some sightseeing. It was a lot of fun. Many very large trees, the General Sherman tree is the largest living thing on the planet. There was a tree that had been hallowed out so much that we could walked through it, Bella and I are showing you how big it was. We saw a bear with her two cubs, they was very near the trail we were walking on. We climbed to the top of a large rocky dome that looked over the park. We stayed inside the park at a lodge where we saw deer and a assortment of other animals.

We were happy to see everyone and have them visit.

Alaska

I had great time in Alaska. I went with Kelly (Shelly's brother), nephew Jensen, Stan and Kevin. We fished for Halibut, Salmon and many other types of fish. Alaska in so big, beautiful and amazing. We saw whales everyday and the scenery was out of this world.
