Jeff's sister Jill, has been up in Sacramento doing training for her upcoming tour in Iraq. Near the end, she had some down time, but couldn't leave for more than 24 hours at a time. That was a little short to come down and visit us, so we arranged to meet her halfway. Only Jeff, Allie and Gabe were able to go, but they had a great time. They decided to camp in Visalia to break up the 6 hour drive there and backinto two days. After they found a campsite, they discovered that Sequoia National Park was only 20 minutes away. So off they went to walk with the Giants. They loved being in the park, among the tall trees, and even a sprinkling of snow on the ground!
The next day, Jeff, Allie and Gabe played on the shore of the river. Jeff was just relaxing and soon discovered that Allie and Gabe had crossed the river! Getting there was not a problem, they just hopped from rock to rock. Getting back an hour later was a much bigger problem. They had opened the gates from the dam above, and now all the rocks were under water! It was a bit of a cold operation, but with Jeff's help, they made it back safely.
