This Shakespeare quote was carved on a bench in a grove of trees at Redwood National Forest. I guess you could also state "One touch with nature and a family crammed in a mini van for miles on end still love each other and even more". We could not get enough National Parks! What started out as a day trip to Yellowstone and a weekend in Spokane visiting family turned into a great adventure of the pacific northwest. From mountains of Washington, Oregon coast, and northern California we were smitten by rustic log cabins, fragrant sea air and crashing waves, geothermal activity, sand dunes, scenic views, towering redwoods, and stars so bright you could practically grab them. I don't think my kids will ever have to experience Disneyland after this trip - it would be far too disappointing. What a joy it was to spend time together as a family connecting with something so real - nature.
