Here we are driving on Thursday, March 9th to a Vet. Conference in Yosemite National Park... we are up close to 7000 feet... Really pretty with snow on all the trees...
Wow!...so far so good... driving carefully... Glad we have snow tires... don't want to put chains on....
Driving into the park... hope we don't need chains... Sure is beautiful coming in 120... think we will go out 140.... not this much elevation... sure is pretty...
Friday morning woke up to more snow than the night before... the park people cleaned the walks every day. You can see our path we made to breakfast
Looking up at Yosemite Falls... Upper and Lower...Friday on our walk
Looking at the stone bridge across from the wooden one we walked across... as you can tell it is snowing again...
Crossing the bridge looking at the Merced River... on our walk
Our room in Birch... quite comfortable
Looking out the sliding glass doors of our rooms patio entrance at the side of the Mountain Restaurant. Frozen world
Early morning the sun was coming up... looked up and could barely see Half Dome between the trees
Stepped out the door and looked up at the cliff all dressed in snow... gorgeous! Cold!!!! In the teens temperature wise
Snowed more during the night... view as we walked out to breakfast from our room
Entrance to the main lodge
Desserts at Mountain Restaurant... Pretty special! Saturday night before heading home on Sunday.
