This morning we all ate breakfast in the trailer - it was 44°F. By moving stuff around we found a way to fit all of us without having to break down my bed (the full size bed at the back of the trailer I use is made from the 4 person dinette.)
After breakfast we made our first trip to Yosemite. We stopped at most of the main high points, including my favorite, Glacier Point. More photos at 2011 Trip Day 44.
Yosemite has some of the most beautiful formations in the National Park system. Glacier National Park is still my favorite, but Yosemite is a very close second. If only it wasn't so crowded, at least at the times I've been there. I was hoping that after Memorial Day Weekend the crowds would be gone, and although not as crowded as in 2004, we still often had to wait to find a parking space at many locations.
We got back to Groveland around 6:30, decided we were all too tired to make anything for dinner, so we had Pizza at the PJ's Cafe. Expensive for a Pizza, but very good. Don & Anne are sitting around the campfire (burning his $1.00 per log firewood) and I'm putting the pages together. We will probably call it an early night tonight & hope for good weather for tomorrow. The current prediction is 40% chance of rain, and 28°F for tomorrow night. We may be trying to find a way to fit all of us in the trailer!
Till Tomorrow -
John, my husband's favorite National Park was Glacier, too. We were there many times. Don't take your trailer, but if you ever get chance when you're up there, be sure to go up to Polebridge.
ReplyDeleteI should have added, but Arches National Park is great for a photographer. I'm sure you already know that and will plan a trip there sometime. Even a very amateur (point and shoot) like me could get some really great shots. We'd go before daylight and be leaving when everyone else was arriving. The go back in the evening - the light in that park is incredible.
