12:16 a.m.: The look of the sky was that of fire and spirit. But the sounds of the waves made the fire burn out. Then it was quiet. The earth hit the reset button.

3:04 p.m.: The coolest thing to think about while watching a sunset on the beach: somebody across that vast body of water to is watching the sunrise. Guess two people can be in the same place at once…uh, symbolically 😂 #philosophy #humboldtcounty #dunes #sunsets #summer

10:30 a.m.: Just got back from an incredible weekend of camping at Gold Bluffs Beach in Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park. Only 5% of the world's old growth redwoods still exist today (how sad!), and more than 95% of them are in CA. A network of parks in Humboldt County called the Redwoods State and National Parks (of which Prairie Creek is a part) protects 45% of California's old growth redwoods. The park system is designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site and International Biosphere Reserve. This is some of the dune habitat on Gold Bluffs beach. Our campsite was right in the dunes!

4:20 p.m.: Sometimes we all struggle with life - everything that we need and have to do - that we do lose sight of things. We can't see the forest for the trees. There's probably no better reminder than a trip to the Redwood Forest; one of the most beautiful and underrated places we've been. #redwoods #redwoodforest #beautiful #arcata #california #humboldtcounty #redwoodpark #travel #explore #sunset #throughthetrees #inspiration

7:14 a.m.: The 1892 constructed Carson Block located at the corner of Third and F Streets in Eureka. This office building built by lumber baron William Carson (think Carson Mansion) was the first professional office building in the city. It contained large office space, retail and the 837 seat Ingomar Theater. In 1986, the Northern California Indian Development Council purchased the property with plans for preservation. After 30 years of securing funding the building is just about finished! #eureka #california #visiteureka #visitcalifornia #californialove #caliexplored #humboldt #humboldtcounty #architecture #archilovers #archidaily #architecturephotography #archi_ologie #oldhouselove #savingplaces #deserve2preserve #thisplacematters

3:48 p.m.: Well it's all over now, what a strange trip it was! 47 miles of land, sand, and water over the course of 3 days can really take it out of ya especially with some food poisoning thrown in.
