9th Anniversary

We spent the weekend in a quaint little town called Ferndale which is on the coast of northern California. It was about a 5 hour drive from our house, but the scenery was beautiful!!






We stayed at an AWESOME bed and breakfast called "The Gingerbread Mansion"



It was supposed to be the most romantic in the area. Besides the TV not working, the power outage, the internet down, cold water in the tubs, a clogged and overflowing toilet and a burnt out light in the bathroom when I needed it most, we were able to find a little romance there.






On Saturday we explored the coast and did a little hiking in an area called Patrick's Point. It is places like these that really make me enjoy living here.





One of the highlights for Dan was a stop at the Humbolt Fort State Historic Park. They've got a huge collection of old steam motors and locomotives on display.


On the way home we drove through Humbolt Redwoods State Park. I couldn't believe how HUGE the trees were!!!



We had so much fun just being alone together. It is nice to remember why we got married in the first place.
