Heading to Eureka, CA

Left Brookings and heading for Cresent City where we'll tour the Redwoods.  Toured the Stout Grove of Redwoods....magnificent grove of Redwoods.   The drive to grove and the grove were something everyone should see.   Drive was about 25 miles round trip and walk thru the grove was about 1 hr......more/less depending on how many pics you take.  We took lots!!!!

We then head down 101 toward Eureka where we spent the next night.   Along the way we toured the Dury drive (take you thru another area of redwoods, visited the mystery trees (home to Babe & Paul Bunyon).  We then arrived at the Moose lodge in Eureka....nothing spectacular but good place to dry camp for one night.

Ingomar Club in Eureka, CA
Following morning Kat and I went into town to see the Ingomar Club home....prior home of the Carson Lumber family.  The Pink Lady was built for their son.  The Ingomar Club is the most photograph home in the world according to the website.
