ADV #15, 4 Types of Volcanoes in North America

Artistic credit goes to my son, but he is camera shy. He drew and labeled all four kinds of volcanoes that can be found in North America, which we learned on our trip to Lassen Volcanic National Park. 1) shield, 2) composite, 3) dome, and 4) cinder cone.

ADV #76, Forestiere Underground

We went to the Underground Forest in Fresno. I thought it was going to be like a botanical gardens, but instead, it was an eccentric man dug his home in the ground to get away from the summer heat (who can blame him) around the 1920's and wanted to make it a resort. Very interesting - an historical place.

ADV #91, Happiest Place on Earth

Our favorit ride at Disneyland is Peter Pan's Flight, where you feel like you've gone out the window, over a tiny Big Ben in London, and then land in Neverland.

ADV #36, See the Sunrise

As moms, we wake up early every day, so this was not a difficult adventure. :-)

ADV #75, Go Plant Hunting

We have all kinds of native plants right in our backyards. Here are five of them: Acer Macrophyllum and Sequoia Sempervirens (both in the first photo), Plystichum, Hyptis Emoryi, and Esconscholizia Californica.

ADV #99, Happy Cows

I thought that Wisconsin was the happiest place for cows (aka the most dairy produced in the US), but it actually is the Central Valley of California, our lovely (and smelly) home.

ADV #73, Attend a Pow Wow

We went to the PowWow in Stockton, on campus at the University of the Pacific. Lots of beautiful sights, drumming and singing, good eats (fry bread!), and interesting vendors. The sign in the last photo says "For Your Convenience My Prices Have Been Pre-Haggled".
