The making of our Merry Christmas video.
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from Living Coast 2 Coast.
Campervan Kevin had the idea that all fulltime RVers could make a Christmas tree on the side of their rigs with painter’s tape. Here is ours.

We really enjoyed exploring the Avenue of the Giants. Driving down the 31 mile Avenue of the Giants weaving around these giant trees with some of them rising along the edge of the road.
We also took a short hike near the northern entrance and the girls found some vines to swing from… Tarzan style.
Come with us to see these magnificent giant trees.

We visited the Trees of Mystery and rode their gondola to the top.
It is amazing looking over these giant redwood trees and seeing the ocean. The path back down from the gondola passes by many unique trees as shown in the video.
There is a tree known as the Wedding Tree but we could not see it because their was a wedding being performed.

Although the Rhyolite Ghost Town is not technically part of Death Valley National Park, it does sit just outside of the park’s eastern entrance headed toward Beatty, Nevada.
There is a small museum located just to the south of the town which has many ghost related statues outside. There is an old train station and a “bottle house” that appear to be maintained.
Oh, the girls attended school at the Rhyolite Schoolhouse. Check it out!
