Yosemite

As lucky as we are, no fee this week! It's National "National Park Week".

The Brooklyn in me got indignant "Who let their dog off the leash?" Then we realized...it's a coyote! Smaller than a German Shepard, taller than a Spaniel.

The Wawona Hotel. Bathrooms down the hall, showers in another building. We found out on the day we were leaving that there is also a shower in our bldg (above). The check out lady was sorry we didn't know so April and I each received a Christmas ornament in the shape of the hotel.

Loved this guy-sang show tunes each night while we sat and had a glass of wine. At 5,000 feet April and I shared one glass of wine. This is cheap-date territory. One night he showed slides of visitors from the 1800's and played the sheet music he found from that era. People had been singing about Yosemite for a while.

Weather in Yosemite is like this, rain, sun, hot, damp, hail, sun...this is all in 10 minutes.

April, from Art & Design drove over and we met at a 1900 hotel 5,000 feet up in the mountains. Not a typical day for either of us.
We meet up with a real ranger.
