1996 trip to Redwoods in motor home

In the summer of 1996 we shared the rental and fuel expense for a motor home with another family and went to the California Redwoods. The first day we drove it to Fort Bragg  for the annual (World's Largest) Salmon BBQ. The final leg of the drive was a challenge on the windy highway 20 in the large motor home. We stayed the night in Fort Bragg then the next day we took a round-trip ride to Willits on the Skunk Railroad. (I had last taken that when I was in about 3rd grade.) When then drove to Avenue of the Giants and camped for a few days there.
