Saratoga Springs, Fault Line, Redwoods


Saratoga Springs Campground - a rushing stream running by your camper, the sounds of squirrels collecting nuts, nature all around, what could be better? Our last campground left a lot to be desired, and it is nice to have moved on. We are right on the San Andreas Fault Line, (http://geology.com/articles/san-andreas-fault.shtml) so it's been a great homeschool lesson for Abby, Zoe & Ayden to learn about earthquakes. We all decided to hike up to see the actual fault, but unfortunately we never made it as the earth had shifted too much and had created mountains where the trail once existed.



We did however get to see the Redwoods at a nearby State Park and learn all about the wildlife there.
