The first year Henry and Velma were married, they took a honeymoon trip to California. After they were gone we found Velma's diary of the trip. Much later we found pictures.
On May 29 1925, (94 years ago) they were in the California State Redwood Park near Boulder Creek, CA. Velma writes "we walked down to the Santa Clara Tree which we were told was the only perfect tree in the park, the center not having been burnt. It was certainly a very perfect redwood tree."
I don't know what she had for a camera, but she took a picture that day of her new husband, Henry Dykeman in front of that perfect redwood tree.
Someday I hope to stand at the foot of this very same tree.
