Here is one the antique houses that you can find in Eureka. It was one of the logging companies owners main residence. The shipping industry had decreased, so to keep his workers busy, he had them build a house. It is now private clubhouse.

One of the barges that helps transport the redwood trees up and down the coast. You should have seen the little tug boat that was pulling this big barge.

Maria, Heather and I on the boat today.

This is Indian Island, which is a sacred ground for the Whinot tribe. The white spots on the ground is not gravel or stone, but oyster and clam shells. At least that is what the tour guide told us.

On Sunday we decided to take a boat tour of Humboult Bay, this is where we left from.

As we were leaving we got to see two elk crossing the road.

Okay, so then I decided to climb in and amongst about three or four different fallen trees.

So this is why the canyon was previously closed. A number of trees had fallen down from the top and you now had to climb up and over or under. Sometime we had to walk across small logs that were in the water and everything. Not bad, only a few panic attacks when slipping around.

The walls on both sides of the canyon are covered in ferns. Hence the name Fern Canyon.

This is entering Fern Canyon. This was the third time that we tried to go to the conyon. The first it was closed due to damage and hazardous conditions. The second was because it had rained for the entire week and the canyon was under water.
