Sunny day

It was a beautiful, sunny day. I biked 42 miles today and stopped in Crescent City CA. I stopped just short of the set of steep mountain ranges. I am staying in a campground right at the base of the Crescent mountains. Tomorrow, I will attack them with fresh legs. Because the visibility was so good today, I really enjoyed biking along the coast. At one point, I saw hundreds of seals and sea lions sunning on the rocks. I also saw thousand of birds nesting on huge rocks just off the coast. I also saw 5 golden eagles today. That was awesome. Tomorrow I also enter the giant redwood tree areas of Northern California. For the next several days I will get to bike amongst the giants. I am really looking forward to the fabulous redwood forests. I have only seen them in books, and it will be a real treat for me to see them up close and personal. As I said earlier, "God's creations speak to me". To ponder their intelligences and to know that they work into God's plan of justice is just incredible to me. The forecast is for more good weather the next 5 days. Hope that holds true. That's it for now. Jerry
