Yosemite Incredible
Our family had an incredible trip to Yosemite National Park in the Western Sierra Nevada mountains last week. It snowed over two feet while we there, we saw and hiked to many beautiful waterfalls, hiked to Mirror Lake, saw lots of wildlife including deer, Stellars Jays, and a Black BEAR!!! It is awe inspiring to stand and gaze upon the steep granite walls of El Capitan, Sentinel Rock, and Half Dome. The towering trees including Redwoods, Black Oak, and Incense Cedar are humbling. It is truly a sacred place that touches your spirit, heart, and soul. Mere words are insufficient to describe the confluence of natural beauty and bounty of Yosemite. I will post pictures after I buy additional hard drive for the computer. I hope you get to visit there and see for yourself. I can't wait to go back and explore some more. Certain places stay with you, sustain you with their sheer beauty, this is one for me.

It sounds divine, in so many ways.
Can't wait to see the pix and share it in some way with you.
I've lived in Northern California my whole life and I only just recently went to Yosemite. My, oh my! My husband and I had no idea what we were missing. Your post is very true! I felt the very same way as you described it.
"It's a sacred place that touches your spirit, heart, and soul."
Looking forward to seeing the pictures!
I was already jealous and now even more! So happy you had a great time.
Luv,

Sounds wonderful, someday I will get there.
