hug a redwood

Who wouldn’t want to? They’re one of the oldest living things on the planet at over 2,000 years old! Also known as a sequoia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sequoia

I’ve sat beside the ocean and under a big sky full of stars… hugging a giant tree older than I could ever understand would only add to the grandeur of my tiny little life…

not like hugging a full grown sequoia, but great experience nonetheless… ;)

I’m going to Northern Cali soon to visit my grandmother who…lives only 10 minutes away from a whole forest of redwoods for me to hug!

to want to stretch your fingertips and rest your cheek against the roughness of a redwood
it is like being a tiny child again

did this several times whenever i visited muir woods north of san fran

oh god I sound like such a hippy tree hugger.oh well, never apologize,right?:)
