Texas to Oregon: Painted Desert, Arizona

_______________________________________________________________________________

Moving from Texas to Oregon, this is the second round taking a few household items to have while our things are temporarily in storage until we find a house near Portland. I finally took the time to drive through The Petrified Forest State Park and through the Crystal Forest in Arizona. As traffic was low due to it being off-season, I was not concerned about laying on the road taking photos of this tumbleweed, but when finished I got up and saw a tour bus right there waiting for me to finish – nice that the driver didn’t honk.

Blue Jays, Cardinals, Grackles, Chickadees, Woodpeckers.. and other birds too numerous to list.. seem more noticeable during winter at the Dallas Arboretum, a perfect place to visit during any time of year.Birds are much easier to photograph in the winter. This is my favorite bird photo.

Sequoia National Park, Sierra Nevada, CaliforniaSequoiadendron giganteum, Sequoia National Park, Mariposa Grove, Sierra Nevada, California
Giant Sequoias are among the oldest living things on Earth – the oldest known tree is 3,500 years old. Sequoias grow to an average height of 164–279 feet, or 50–85 metres, and 20–26 feet or 6–8 metres wide. Record trees have been measured to be 311 feet high (94.8 m). Visiting the Redwood and Sequoia forests in northern California needs to be on your bucket list..certainly, going back is on mine!
