Happy 100th Birthday Muir Woods!

January 9, 2008 is the 100th birthday of Muir Woods, another National Park we'll be visiting. Check out this web page for more info: http://www.nps.gov/muwo/planyourvisit/muir-woods-centennial.htm

A few years ago I visited the Big Basin Redwoods State Park and I was in awe of the gigantic redwoods. But Muir Woods is only 12 miles north of San Francisco, and from there we can continue on to the Point Reyes National Seashore.

Here's another interesting site to visit to learn more about how we can all help to preserve our nation's remaining redwood forests: http://www.savetheredwoods.org/

And here's another Google Map to check out:
