Time to culture it up! Spent the weekend at the British Museum. My companion spent no small amount of time...angry. "How did they get that?! Must be stolen!"
Having not done a real hike since November, it seemed the perfect time to launch myself on ~40 miles over 3 days backpacking.
Day 1 started in old growth redwoods, passed remains of homesteading, then climbed past a selection of trees to one of the old growth redwood backpacking camps.
Day 2 wasn't far, but had excursions to make it longer than the first. Out along Hanson Ridge and up to the fire lookout on Grasshopper Mountain and one that shall simply be known simply as The Excursion.
Day 3 was the longest of them all, but also the most single track trail, the most old growth. Oh, yeah, and the most downhill. A little river and creek and lots of trees.

"The newly reimagined Lafayette Hotel in San Diego has chic '40s energy, gorgeous restaurants and bars with amazing food, and a pool."
I got to enjoy the renovations at the historic Lafayette Hotel yesterday! WOW!! (OG post below for context). A $20 Day Pass for the pool/grounds was a purrfect way to soak it all in w/out breaking the bank. I love Art Deco design and was in awe of the gorgeous details. I'm looking forward to hanging in The Jungle Room where they have live jazz every night. So hip and fun! Hard to believe this oasis is in the middle of a city neighborhood.
