Skip the ties and coffee mugs this Father’s Day and give your dad something he’ll really enjoy: a Sunday in a California State Park. There are dozens of events statewide this Sunday, so you’re sure to find something to fit your family’s interests. Here are just a couple:
Big Basin Redwoods State Park: Father’s Day Walk Celebrate Father’s Day by honoring some of the remarkable men who lived in, worked in, and fought for Big Basin. Living history re-enactments bring you back in time where you’ll meet pioneer settlers, Big Basin founders and early park rangers Stroll through the majestic old-growth redwoods on this half-mile, 1.5 hour guided walk. Wheelchair and stroller accessible. Meet at Park Headquarters.Call (831) 338-8860 for more information.
California State Railroad Museum: Diesels & Dads Treat dad to some rail-related “eye candy” when seven rarely-seen diesel locomotives from the museum’s impressive collection will be on special display for one day only. Dad will enjoy taking a memorable and relaxing weekend excursion train ride that is reminiscent of train travel from an earlier era. Those aboard are treated to a six-mile, 40-minute roundtrip excursion along the levees of the Sacramento River. Same-day general admission weekend excursion train ride tickets are available in-person on a first-come, first serve basis starting at 10:30 a.m.at the Sacramento Southern Railroad ticket office. Tickets to ride the first-class El Dorado are available to book online in advance at www.californiastaterailroadmuseum.org
I was wanting to know if you ever thought of changing the page layout of your blog? It is well written; I really like what you have got to say. But maybe you could include a a bit more in the way of content so people could connect with it better. You have got a great deal of text for only having one or two photographs. Maybe you can space it out better?
Thanks for the feedback! We’re always looking for ways to incorporate more images, but time and resources don’t always coincide. We’ll make that a goal in the future. Thanks!
great post
