Come "packin" on the old trestle...yee-haa! I said YEE-HAA!

Today we had a little family outing. Went on an old forestry road about 25 minutes away from our house, and went to an old logging trestle, built most likely around the late 1890s-early 1900s. Jeff and his Dad actually discovered this trestle, when Dad and Mom Stafford were out visiting a few weeks ago. We walked down a little canyon that I am sure runs like crazy with water in the Spring. Then all of a sudden, these old log structures! I have never seen a trestle built the way this one was. It almost looks like old wood cabins or something; but it was a trestle built over the little canyon. Also next to the trestle were some ancient Indian drawings/carvings on the rocks. Crazy! You can see the shapes clearly. There is so much history over there, but nobody knows about it, or have at least mentioned anything about it. So cool. I love it when we discover places like this. Old and with a story to tell. Oh yeah, I love the picture with Jeff's back towards the camera...relates to the title of this post ;-)
