Knock another one off the list

I have an unwritten and unofficial list of things I want to do before I die. Some have a bit of significance, some border on the absurd, many I know I'll never do. Drive in a demolition derby, attend the Indy 500, travel to Israel, live to see the Cubs win the world series, attend a concert at Red Rocks... you get the idea. Sometime in high school I imagined going to see the giant redwood trees. Now I can cross that one off the list.

And I wasn't dissapointed by the trees. They're just amazing. After snowboarding we headed south to Crescent City, Calif., where we did an afternoon hike through the forest to the beach to watch a sunset.
