I know I am risking looking dumb...but, did you know the redwoods were pines? I didn't! I guess all the pictures I saw growing up were of the trunks and not of the branches. Well, now I know they are pines. The Russian River is in a redwood forest.... today we are taking a day trip to see the giant redwoods. This vacation was very much needed....it took Dean 2 days just to relax....I over work him. The place we are staying at has help us relax (http://www.villageinn-ca.com/index.html). It has a beautiful view of the river and the temps drop into the 50's at night. I love sleeping with a comforter (days are in the 90's...nice pool weather). The owners of the inn are gardeners and have been helpful in answering my questions about the plants they can grow. To write the trip off we went to several vineyards and did some sampling for the cafe...and of course we wore our Wilde Roast Cafe shirts (often) to advertise the cafe. We will be back on Tuesday morning.
