The Wolnik Sisters got together February 28, 2009 for an overnight trip to Santa Cruz, California.

The day started out with Shelly attending her neice Erika's first softball practice!

In the afternoon, Shelly, Renee and Ginger hiked the Fall Creek Trail of Henry Cowell State Park

After the hike, we visited the Bigfoot Discovery Museum in Felton

At dusk, we stopped at Natural Bridges State Beach in Santa Cruz

We stayed at the Best Western All Suite Inn, Santa Cruz where we shared the Bridal Suite.

We walked to dinner to the Pearl Alley Bistro and then walked around downtown Santa Cruz.
