I needed a walk in the forest today to get a bit of exercise. I hopped on my dirt bike and rode it up to the Talking Trees trail and parked the bike here and got off and headed up the trail behind the bike.
It’s a rather nice trail, most of it not too steep.
It goes on up through the trees crossing the creek here.
I went just past this part as the trail was starting to get steeper which would warm me up too much and cause my itches to kick in.
So, I turned around here and and headed back down the other way.
And continued on down this way which was mostly flat and easy walking.
I crossed the creek again and continued.
The trail went down along side of the creek for a ways.
And eventually ended up in these big redwood trees.
There’s a big cross on one of the big trees marking our family memorial site where I stopped and turned around and went back up the trail to where the dirt bike was parked.
What a magical area you live in. Just absolutely beautiful Take care.

Header Pictures
There are over a hundred pictures that are served up randomly every time you visit or change pages. They are of earlier pictures of interest and also some just to remind me of things.
A Sony AX33 4K, a video camera that takes stills too. What am I doing with that? I take pictures from my Kayak a lot. I found I was missing interesting shots, because my pic was being processed in my camera, before it would let me take another pic. Since I like to take what I call action stills, I bought this camera to take videos, that I could make stills out of, but, as a bonus, this camera also came with buttons to just take stills and that's what I mostly do, unless something is real interesting or too far away for my still zooms. My digilat zoom setting for video goes to two hundred x, and sometimes I need that, but usually, I only use the 10x lens zoom. Because this camera is HD and 4K, the quality has to be real good and it has a lot of stabilizers on it which really helps out a lot for taking pics on the water.
The other thing it has that is a must is a view finder and I had to buy Sony's top of the line cam to get it. This is a must for taking pics on the water, as you must hold the camera as still as posible and putting that eye piece to the eye forms a tripod with your arms that helps a lot. The eye piece is also a must as it works way better than a LED screen to see what you are taking a picture of in the daylight as the LED screens wash out easily in sunlight.
I also have another video camera, a Canon VIXIA G30. I use them both to mostly take stills. The Sony takes higher resolution stills than the G30. That was a bit of a disappointment as I bought the G30 to replace an older camera I dunked in the river, but then had to buy the Sony to get higher still picture resolution that the G30 was lacking.
