This last weekend we went up to Occidental for a little work and pleasure. Nate was taking some of his staff to a Tree Climbing workshop for 3 days so the girls and I decided to tag a long and add a day or two on and make a mini vacation out of it. The first two days it rained and rained! The rivers and streams were swollen and water rushed over most of the roads. It was pretty fun since it was the first real rain we have had since last spring. Hard to imagine, but yes it has not stormed since last spring. 
We spent some time exploring the cute little towns in the area and driving through wine country and the rolling hills. It was so beautiful up there!

Sydney was loving it. She was not expecting the ropes to climb the trees. She said that she wanted to climb with her hands and feet on the tree not just with ropes. She did get to taste a little of what it was like to climb with the ropes. She got the hang of it pretty quick!
