An old highschool chum Gaby came for a visit over the weekend and we visited Muir Woods for the first time. Home to some of the world's oldest living things, the mighty Sequoia or Coast Redwood trees, the setting seemed quite magical and surreal at times. I learned about the fire resistant bark and why some trees seemed to grow together in "families". The unfortunate lack of rain in the Bay area meant the streams were pretty dry, but it didn't detract from the fresh air and gorgeous scenery. And it's only a 20 minute drive from downtown SF! I also got to play with my iphone camera's panorama apps.
