Looking for something to do in Northern California this weekend? CMAA Guest Author, Scott Gring, shown here in a tree along the Slate Creek Trail, shares his memories of his aunt and uncle through the story of the Ethel and Herbert MacNeal Memoral Grove in Portola Redwoods State Park in California. It’s a 20-acre redwood grove off the Slate Creek Trail, established in April 2008 for the enjoyment of all, but especially their Clan Macneil kin. It’s just outside Sunnyvale, CA. Visit AllTrails.com for more details about the trail itself and read the full length article in an upcoming issue of CMAA’s The Galley for more on the Ethel and Herbert MacNeal Memorial Grove.
