Burlington 25

2014 West then East, California, National Parks, Redwood NSP, Road Trip, States

We scored! Back in 2008 when we were here in The Redwoods we camped in a grove of redwoods in our little tent. We remembered that it was in one of the state parks along The Avenue of the Giants but we couldn’t remember which campground. Yesterday we visited three that, although nice, didn’t have the feel of the one we remembered. We ended up camping at Huckleberry 31. Later we talked to a ranger who knew exactly which campsite we remembered – Burlington 14! But 14 is suitable only for tents. This morning we were at the kiosk in Burlington at 9AM registering for Site 25. It was still occupied at the time but by the time we came back we were able to back our T@B into this site nestled among these incredibly tall redwoods!

Off the beaten path is Hampstead is the more than three hundred year old Burgh House with a fascinating history. It’s now a community center, local museum, gallery, concert venue, event space, and more open to the public four days a week.

Ever since its debut on Broadway the two of us have wanted to see “Wicked the Musical”. Today we realized that dream. In the Apollo Victoria Theater in London’s West End we were witness to the incredible prequel to The Wizard of Oz, the story of the Glinda the Good and the Wicked Witch of the West.
