Rushin' to the Russian River

Ryan, Anders, Hazel and I headed to guernville, CA to celebrate thanksgiving with Meme, Joe, Greta and Gaga. We rented a lovely house along the river. 

It was a looong drive. We left at nap time on Wednesday and Anders quickly passed out. 

We drove to Blind Beach one morning,

and took in some amazing views.

Discipline on the trail. I'm waiting for and apology. 

The house had a couple kayaks. Ryan and I enjoyed a quiet trip upriver. 

Getting ready for bed and a game of Balderdash.

Three generations. 

The very dry riverbed. 

In the foothills of Mt Shasta, with another 5 hours to go, we got out and raced around.
