Visiting the Forest Giants

wilma — Fri, 10 Sep 2021 21:01:23 GMT

My husband and I went out to a nearby forest (35 minute drive) to see the "giants" earlier today. We spent a few hours away from our suburban house in the city and walked a couple of trails in the forest. Very pleasant, relaxing, and enjoyable!

If you want more info you can Google Bernheim Arboretum & Research Forest.

Here are some photos of the giants and the forest.

Wow! It's a beautiful area and very neat giants!

At first I thought you meant the redwoods in CA! I saw them once and they too are breathtaking!

I grew up in N CA and thought the same thing!

At any rate, those are really cool pics. Thank You for sharing. No clues on where this is?

We saw the redwood "giants" when we were out there on a trip in the 90s. Magnificent!

What a neat place. It's a few hours away from me but I've never heard of it.

Unique & beautiful photos. If that's you in the first photo, you took a very nice pic & looks like it's trying to hug you.

Someone has impressive talent but my favs are the scenic trail, wildflowers & pond/lake.

Thanks for sharing.
