February 13-15, 2015 - Sequoia RV Ranch, Three Rivers, CA
Valentines Day... great excuse for an RV trip. I saw that Avett Brothers were playing in Visalia on Valentines Day and I knew it was perfect. But... we're not going to stay in Visalia (we're not crazy). So we found a river front spot in Three Rivers (near Lake Kaweah), just outside of Sequoia National Park.
Clearly Hank enjoyed the weather too.
Brian accidentally took a selfie while trying to fix my camera:
Brilliant girl scout stopped by our camp:
The river near our campsite:
The "swimming hole" near our campsite... probably better in the summer:
Saturday was spent sitting in the campsite enjoying this peaceful view... Brian played guitar, I played banjo, we drank and relaxed. Perfect:
The Fox Theater in Visalia: (why are so many old cool theaters called The Fox?)
The Avett Brothers. One of my inspirations to learn banjo. It was amazing:
Since we were only a few minutes away from Sequoia National Park we decided to swing by on Sunday before we left. Hank was up for it:
We were pleased to find out that park admittance was free because it was President's Day weekend... we were not so pleased to learn that the big trees are 45 minutes away from the entrance of the park. We knew we had a 5 hour drive ahead of us (without the visit to the park) so we almost turned around, but decided to check it out.
Some asshole vandalized the wall; but they're note made me laugh so...
Quick, short trip to General Sherman:
That's General Sherman coming out the top of my head:
What a great weekend! Other than the fact that I ended up with a head cold... perfect.
