Yosemite

Friday, Keith and Elizabeth went to L.A. to deliver the Galaxy to it's new owner. It was a long day for them. Keith drove the Galaxy and Elizabeth followed him, so he could come home. Needless to say it was a long day for them both. The person who purchased the car also gave them money for gas and food, very considerate as it took them 5-5 1/2 hours to get there. He is staying near Knotts Berry Farm Amusement Park in Anaheim. The cars next destination, New Zealand.

Saturday we went to Yosemite, Elizabeth, Dan and I. I haven't been there in the snow and have been wanting to. I am not sure that the amount of snow there really counts. The snow pack is somewhere around 88% of what is normal this time of year. We had a good time. Walked a lot, so we got our 'gym' time in, sorta.
Yosemite Falls, upper and lower. There were people going over the boundaries and climbing on the rocks/boulders around the falls. I really don't have much to say about their mentality. I am sure that most of the fence jumpers don't get hurt and go home with some exciting photos and stories ~ but some get severely hurt.

Half dome looks as if it has been sprinkled with powered sugar.

This is the river in the meadow and a view of upper Yosemite Falls. When we had the girls out from Ohio in 2006, we ate lunch here and they played in the water. Then again it was 103 when we had them and it was around 50 this day.

A view of Bridal Veil Falls.

Half Dome again.

We walked where we could, and saw what was open. Part of the park is closed until late May, they don't plow those roads and the road to Glacier Point is one of them. What was missing were wild flowers. We saw fields of them on the way up, but not many in the park. I guess it is just a bit early for that elevation.

We enjoyed ourselves and plan on returning. It takes us about 2 hours to get to the valley floor.

Just one of many places that magnify the glory of God and his miraculous works.
