Yosemite National Park,CA

Before coming here, we visited Angel's Camp, the Gold Country and the Calaveras Big Trees State Park. The size of the Sequoias is unbelievable. After a very exciting drive on Route 20 Oak Flat Road, we arrived Sunday morning in Yosemite with Geri's sister, Marge. The road was anything but flat with lots of hairpin turns as we climbed in elevation. Marge only had 1 day, so we went up to Tioga Pass. The vistas of the high Sierras were magnificent. The lakes reflected the mountains and vistas. We could walk to the edges of glacier granite. Yesterday we took a ranger-guided tour of the Valley. The sights are breathtaking. We now have 3 days(not enough) to tour and hike on our own. Our internet is spotty, so no new pictures until we leave here on Friday.
