1st look at Eureka Ca

The main reason we are here in Eureka is our granddaugher Kayla is starting Humboldt State University (HSU) or as the kids say HSU stands for Hills and Stairs University. She is in the dorm behind her picture, the room is on the second floor but to unload her stuff we had to bring it in thru the basement which meant up 3 flights of stairs. Yes there is NO elevator. It is a beautiful campus in the pines and a couple miles from the ocean. She is going to major in Marine Biology. No sure how much she will learn but her cardio will be great. We have done some exploring in and around Eureka. There are over 1600 historically-designated Victorian home in Eureka proper. The huge one pictured is call the Carson Mansion and is one of the most photographed Victorian homes in the USA. It had over 100 people working on it. Yesterday Jackie's brother flew up from Ventura Ca, he is spending a few days here. Going to go sightseeing with him today. Will post a little more often, I was reminded that I was getting behind on posting by someone who I won't name but he lives in Chico, his dad is Alex Wells and he is named after his dad. If you try real hard you might figure out who it is. LOL Weather cool and cloudy most of the day. Highs of 60-65 degrees and sun usually comes out after 12 pm.
