         Nu Nu in a Redwood Tree by Robert Swetz

 

Well "Labor Day" is over and my family has gone back to the Midwest. It was a wonderful weekend celebrating my father's 75th Birthday and spending some time with many other family members.

Vegas Bob and family spent most of his time down on Fremont Street with all the tourists, which I am not use to doing. Listening to slot machines, music bands, light shows and so much more has really got my ears and nerves on end. I really don't know how people can work around all this noise, it would drive VB crazy after a short time.

So VB is off to the Redwoods in Northern California, and I am not talking the Bay Area or Sacramento ... I am talking way up north only 100 miles from the Oregon Border.

VB is going to pitch a tent right in the middle of these MONSTER TREES, hike along the trails, take photographs, videos and just listen to the sound of nature, birds, animals, BIG FOOT and plain silence.

(Below) are many different stories, photograph & videos of the Redwoods I have done over the years. VB is going to take all (NEW) photos, videos along with some updated stories of his trip to the Redwoods so ...

Good evening VB. Your photos are really improving. Pretty soon you will be better than me! I say this as a compliment, not to be egotistical...

VB pretty cool shot! But if you ask me I've seen too many trees these days that caused a fuss! I'd rather be at the beach now!

VB, it's nice that you have a favorite place to go to when you want to get away from all of the noise.   I'm not sure what Michael means when he says your photos are improving.   Although you occasionally use some more "quick, casual" shots I still vividly remember some of your excellent, professional quality photographs from when you first joined Active Rain.   

 I wonder if we can go back and reblog posts from several years ago before the reblog feature was available?

Hello Michael and thanks for stopping, and you should know by now that VB (Never) shares his best on the Internet ... "Scared of Thieves" ... and I know what you mean buddy!

And Ellen, I am thinking that you may not want to see any trees because of all the storms in your area. Did you know that where this photo of the Redwood was taken is only minutes from some of the most beautiful coastline in the world?

VB, what an awesome photo!  I can't imagine how truly large these trees are unless you are there in person.  I must get out to northern California some day!

Enjoy your solitude! I felt like we were about to see dinosaurs when we were up there ... Just like Jurassic Park!

What a great photo. It reallly makes you appreciate what mother nature has provided for us to enjoy. It makes me sad to think of all the trees that are being destroyed in Texas fires.
