Off we go again...not to Mt. Rushmore, to Yosemite.
Yep, we've got beautiful weather in Nor Cal, but thunderstorms nixed our trip to the Dakotas.
So we decided to take off for the most beautiful place on earth.
And the drive was beautiful too, right up until...
We blew out a tire.
AAA didn't let that stop us...Soon we were on our way again.
And the scenery continued to be gorgeous.
The entrance to the park was a welcome sight.
And the ranger was pretty welcoming, too.
Off to find the Ahwahnee Hotel.
And a friend or two along the way.
Well, lookie here...
It's the Ahwahnee herself.
How 'bout a little walk before dinner?
Maybe to Lower Yosemite Falls?
Not a bad lookin' spot, is it?
El Capitan's not too shabby, either.
Nor is the rest of the scenery as we make our way back...
to dinner at the Ahwahnee.
I had the rib-eye. And chocolate decadence.
Can't wait to see what tomorrow brings.

Gorgeous pictures! Well, except for the flat tire.
Stopping by to welcome you to SITS!
What a beautiful trip you had!
Stopping by to say hello and welcome to SITS!
You lucky girl. Looks like a nice vacation. You even survived the flat tire. Yosemite never looked better.
That lake looks AMAZING! I am so jealous. PS I am coming to SF for Karisa's baby shower and I am totally bummed that none of you will be there!
Beautiful!! We are planning to go to Yellowstone this summer, I cannot wait for my kids to see the Tetons for the first time or watch Old Faithful. Have a fun trip!
The hotel looks beautiful! The scenery is gorgeous, but I want to know where that hotel is! I could be persuaded to go to the woods if I could stay there. Have a great time, and enjoy some chocolate decadence for me!
You've made me want to go to Yosemite. Now.
It looks so beautiful there.
And chocolate decadence . . . ah.
Wish I was there with you instead of grading finals :)
