July 4th

Our annual 4th of July in Ripon.

Fun with glow sticks... pretty neat!

Brandon feeding Uncle Mark cookies....

Farewell

It was a great year and then it came time to wish Noriyasu good-bye.

Sequoia National Park-Moro Rock

Moro Rock is an easy climb with cables, carved stairs, and some handrails. And a beautiful view.

Sequoia National Park-Yes, Snow in June!

Snow on the ground, my kids in shorts... yep, those are my kids!

Sequoia National Park-Big Trees

After the cave, we went to visit the giant redwoods. Here is a tree they call General Sherman.

Sequoia National Park-Crystal Cave

We took one of our last trips with Noriyasu. We visited Sequoia National Park. The first stop was Crystal Caves.
