Now this is Isabelle having a "stress attack" while waiting for her daddy to get the train under her Christmas tree set up. As you can see she was quite excited...

Eureka........He did it...It is a really cute train...a Disneyland train...she and Papa really loved it...










Where we are parked, the Menden Lake 1,000 Trails is set right in the middle of the Walnut Groves of Northern California...it's really beautiful. This time of year the trees don't have any leaves or fruit but the are simply a "picture" to look at...This first picture is of some older and more mature trees they seem beautiful and a little sinister looking as well...







This nest one is a bit younger grove so the sinisterness hasn't creeped in that much, I just love the way they are planted...as you drive down the road the limes are so straght, no matter which way you look!!!
