Camping in Samuel P. Taylor State Park

How many times have we driven through Samuel P. Taylor State Park while heading for the coast along Sir Francis Drake Boulevard?  Hundreds!  How many times have we hiked in the park? Zero. How many times have we camped in the park? Zero. After this weekend, however, we can change that "zero" into a "one". For the first time, we camped at this beautiful redwood park. It was an incredible evening and morning. We haven't been this relaxed in quite some time. All our worries and thoughts about work melted away the moment the tent was up and the campfire lit. In the morning, Ei Ei, Chris, Orion, and Freckles joined us for the Pioneer Tree loop hike and we spent the rest of the afternoon at Chimney Rock in Point Reyes. A perfect weekend.
