Weekend in Yosemite

Last weekend I got to see a dear friend from college that I haven't really spent any time with in ages! She and her husband are new parents and finally got around to taking a little mini-vacation and we were able to show them the cabin and Yosemite. It was a spectacular day - overcast and unseasonably cool - perfect for some hiking. The park was crowed as always, which always reminds me why we almost never go there despite our cabin being 1 mile away.

Anyway, Matt took some great photos:











I LOVE this one. We are all alone on a path in Sentinel Meadow, with that spectacular scenery. And Katy the dog.

After hiking around the meadow, we headed over to my favorite stop in Yosemite. The mighty Yosemite Falls which is...

... not so mighty in August (usually it's gushing.)

Like I said above, we brought Katy into the park for the first time and ohmygod, was she on sensory overload.



Obviously, she is much more interested in the chipmunk behind me that posing for a photo.

After the day in the park, we headed back to the cabin and gorged on spaghetti and garlic bread. It's fabulous when you know you've gotten enough exercise in that calories don't matter! From there is was a blur of fabulous wine, knitting, and waking up Sunday to the sound of rain. Pure bliss, and a very relaxing way to spend the weekend.

Come back soon Lauren & John!
