Day Seven--Caroline & Knox

     On Sunday it was Jude's birthday, so we woke him up with a round of happy birthday, and thoroughly startled Henry, who was still asleep and yelled. Then, we went to Christ Church Eureka. It was a very nice and cute church with pretty stain glass windows and cool architecture. We had a nice service, which was fairly familiar, but much longer. After church they had "coffee hour" which had coffee but also actual lunch, and lots of baked goods. They also had paintings of the 12 disciples, but if the 12 disciples were 50's Hollywood actors. The picture of Judas was especially strange. Then we left, and went to get bagels because even though there was a lot of food, we were still hungry. After we got bagels we decided to go for a hike in the redwoods, and it was very calm and pretty. Once we had gotten back from the hike, we split into two groups; one to distract Jude and get groceries, and one group to to make a surprise cake for Jude. We ate dinner, then surprised Jude with his cake and sang happy birthday to him. After a long but fun day, we went to bed.

     The church service was very long. The hike was quite nice and I had a good conversation about books. I am not Jude and was not aware of the cake plans until we got back from grocery shopping and ice cream. Overall it was a good, calm day.
