I grew up on the East Coast where being in nature was very different than it is in California. My family has a little cottage on a pond in Massachusetts and we were able to go swimming whenever we wanted. I really miss that freedom.
This weekend I went camping at Henry Coe State Park with a few friends and I finally felt a bit of that freedom. We camped deep in the park and hiked down to a spot called china hole which was like a mini oasis after walking in the 100 degree heat. Such a beautiful place that I'd love to go again.
Here are a few of the moments:

the picnic table by our tent. Isn't this the best place for writing?
China Hole...so clean and clear
so pretty
a place to cool off.

walk back to camp in all that heat and sun
Now it is time for me to get back to work after a few days of sunshine. I'll be posting what I have been working on in a few days.

did you visit the Redwoods there as well? :) love that last photo in particular.
thanks, Lindsey. No Redwoods this weekend but I love being in there too. I feel so lucky to be within hours of so much beauty.
It's beautiful! That swimming hole seems rather small, but maybe that's photographic perspective.
It was a pretty small water hole but there was a point in the middle you could jump in that was about 7 ft deep. It was really fun.
