Next Stop: The Giant Forest

Leaving J-Tree, I headed towards the Sequoia National Forest.
I ended up on a lake out in the midst of sandy terrain.
It was SO lovely.
I uncontrollably laughed and howled, overjoyed by the beauty.
I played guitar and sang, overflowing with gratitude.

Then I found myself in King's Canyon National Park/Forest.
I found a perfect campsite and once again, was overjoyed, howling and laughing at my luck.
A day or 3 hanging out with the big trees, hugging them, being amazed by them.

Majestic selfies I give credit to the wind, lake, and sunset for.

I spent a few days with D and his lovely doggo here too.

in the company of the big trees and eachother, it was lovely.

Oh the tree giants stole my heart and I’m completely okay with that. You can see the magnitude of their size by the top middle picture where there’s an old, fallen, and hollowed out sequoia that people are walking around inside of, with feet of room between them and the top of the tree skeleton. Amazing.

Me: “Will you marry me? I love you. Thank you for existing.”

A series of cute doggo pictures including one of D and his dog literally inside a hollowed out sequoia skeleton (enormous, I’m telling you!) and a very cute one of my favorite Henry passenger.

& I was off again, up towards Yosemite, the forest continually amazing me.

SO BEAUTIFUL. MY HEART.

This time of year, reservations are needed to enter Yosemite. I didn’t know that before arriving and wasn’t able to go into the park. However, this bloomed into a beautiful opportunity to explore the national forest there instead, which is basically a hidden treasure of the park itself ❤ Absolutely beautiful and I was able to develop a deeper relationship with the tree giants this way.

Henry and I have had a great many forest explorations together – I’m continually grateful for how rugged of a vehicle he is!
