#california redwoods

Redwoods have been my favorite type of tree for many years, so staying at a cabin surrounded by redwoods is a big deal for me. At the end of November we spent four days at a cabin in Sonoma County on the North Coast and these beautiful trees were the view from my room.

Redwoods are by far my favorite tree. After hiking for so many months in the mountains and foothills, it was such a treat to finally hike among the redwoods again in Muir Woods last December. Along the path in the park the sunlight gleams through the 200-foot tall trees to highlight just how beautiful and majestic they are. And while Muir Woods is not my favorite Redwood park, there is something still so magnificent about this special place in the bay.

Fear is a useful emotion, but it can also really hold us back. I’m scared of a lot of things: baths, water bottles, wet clothes… (I’m sensing a theme here)

And if I wanted to, I could just live life as a ScaredyCorg, but I don’t let those things stop me. I’d rather be scared out of my mind hiding behind my corgmom — but still doing da thing instead of doing nothing at all.

(This is a #TBT to when I was a fat corgi. )
