Today was a travel and grocery day. We have not found the farmers markets we had hoped, mostly because the snow was so much this year that crops are just beginning to grow as the snow is cleared. Lots of snow still where we are!
We arrived in the Redwood Forest around 5pm to find all the park sites full. We travelled on....lucky we did too. We were driving over a bridge in the small town of Klamath when we saw lots of people looking and pointing over the side of a bridge. "What is it?", I called out the window, expecting to hear "school of fish, or bear, or boat". To our surprise, the man called back, "WHALE". "Pull over", the rest of the car yelled. A grey whale had made it's way up the Klamath River and was swimming back and forth under the bridge. The state trooper told us this has not happened in 22 years! I will post the whale photos on the website. We are now retelling our whale of a tale from a quiet little campground just south of the park. Another incredible stroke of Butcavage luck.
