After 42 years the Crab Races come to a close!
Or so read the headlines of the local newspaper in Crescent City!
We had been looking forward to going to this for 3 years but were never able to make it. We called 3 times this year to make sure it was going to be on! So we made the 400 mile drive north. When we arrived at our hotel we asked what time the races started. He had no idea! The next morning we overheard a man at breakfast saying something about the races. Jim got a copy of the paper he was reading! Needless to say we were disappointed but we made the most of our trip. Here are a few pictures!

Paul Bunyon and the trees of mystery
Nate has always wanted to be the big boy. He prefers to walk rather than be in his stroller. During our walk on the trees of mystery he saw another boy running, Nate decided he had to run as well and there was no need to hold mommy's hand anymore! Big boys don't hold hands! It was a struggle and he fell a couple of times!
