log 214: sequoia

trees

Somehow my friend and I turned a 4 hour drive to Sequoia national park into a 6 hour journey instead. It’s been a while since I’ve been out in nature and it was nice to finally breathe some fresh air. Unfortunately Lilo had to stay in the car because these national parks don't allow dogs. So I need to make it up to her. I forgot how nice it is to get out into nature to just walk. It seems a little silly but it really clears the mind. And I’ve been wanting to go to Sequoia for a while because of the trees. It was amazing how old and large they were, but the amount of tourists slipping on the ice made it hard to appreciate. I’ll definitely have to go back for a longer hike next time.
