July 2025 road trip adventure part 4

Hello, my bucket list friends! It is time for the last post about my Northern California road trip. This road trip was a lot of fun and I’ve enjoyed writing about it. In this post I will write about visiting the Trees of mystery and camping and more. Now Let’s get to it!

July 17th – This was the last full day of our trip before driving home the next day. Our day started off with a boat tour. During the boat tour we got to see a lot of birds. I enjoyed this fun adventure and I’m we did this activity. Our next activity was the Trees of Mystery and it was one of my favorite activities that we did on our road trip. There is a lot to see at the Trees of Mystery including fun statues. I really liked the large squirrel statue. There were also some bouncy bridges that I got to walk across. There were so many fun sculptures and displays to see here. I also loved the Bear sculpture! Also there is really nice gift shop here where I got some fun souvenirs. This such a fun place to explore I highly recommend visiting The Trees of Mystery . After going to the Trees of Mystery we got lunch and then we went on another hike and saw more beautiful views of the ocean. After our walk we went to a Walmart. since we were staying in a camping trailer that night we needed to get some food to have for dinner that night. While at Walmart I got some stickers and some animal shaped erasers. That night we took a walk around the campground. I had not gone camping in a long time so it was nice to spend a night at a campground. It was a good place to spend our last night of vacation.

July 18th – This was the day that we drove back home. We woke up, packed up, and got on the road. We went on one more walk in the Redwoods before we stopped in Ferndale for coffee and a visit to the general store where I got a post card and a magnet that is shaped like a cow. Ferndale is a very cute town and I hope that I get to go back there someday when I have more time to explore. After that we made the long drive back home. It was a wonderful summer road trip and I’m so glad to that got to see some amazing places in Northern California.

summer fun before my mall weekend

Hello, my bucket list, friends! I’m thankful that I still have a lot of summer posts to write because it allows me to reflect back on all the fun summer adventures that I had this year. In this post, I will be talking about the time between my Las Vegas trip and my mall weekend tradition. I’m excited to write another post about my summer fun, so let’s ger to it.

June 14th – This was the day after we came back from Las Vegas. I had work, but before work, my mom and I went to Target. One of the main reasons we went to Target on this day was because we wanted to participate in Joyride Day. All you had to do was take a picture holding joyride candy and post it on Instagram. I love Joyride Candy, so I bought some, and I also did a pick-up order where I got some fun items such as the new playdoh Barbie and a monster truck painting craft kit. I also got three fun items from the dollar section. I got a 4th of July scratch art kit, a pinball game that has a flamingo on it, and a squishy turtle toy. It was a great Target shopping trip. I also got coffee and I went on a walk in the park on this day. At work that day I got two activity books one was a sticker book and another one was a coloring book. It was a good day that was full of summer fun!

June 15th – This day was Father’s Day. We went out to lunch to celebrate. After lunch we went on a walk and then we went to Starbucks it was a nice day.

June 16th – The highlights of this day were getting Starbucks and going for a walk in the park.

June 17th – On this day, I went to Starbucks and bought some pens at work.

June 18th – On this day I went to my favorite used book store after getting coffee. I got some fun books including a coloring book. In addition to the used book store I went to 7-eleven and I got a Slurpee in a reusable cup. I also went on a walk later that day.
