Just got back. The trip was great. Had a great hike up to the top of Vernal Falls.Feel pretty good for not working out for 10 months or hiking for a year.
Had a wonderful Cottage at the Ahwhanee. At the very end of the cottages facing the River and Bridge.Very quiet and isolated. The only place in the Valley that wasn't crowded.Yosemite was crazy crowded everywhere.The Ahwhanee itself was crowded. The most people I have ever seen in Yosemitee in October. Maybe the most crowded I have ever seen it.I will post pictures later. Good trip though. It started raining just as we were pulling out of the Ahwhanee parking lot and the rain continued until we got to Visalia where it started pouring. Saw lightning and then it became hard rain.I turned my wipers up to full throttle and all of a sudden the wipers started eratically working and stopped.Bad time for no wipers.So I put on the sunglasses and drove on. Thank goodness it finally stopped raining near Bakersfield as it started getting dark.
