Yosemite Called - We Went
Jul 11, 2017 23:19:14 #
A few months ago we happened to recheck availability and found an unexpected cancellation for the first week of July. With no other choice, we grabbed the opportunity. Things went wrong fast. I took a limo to meet my wife in Boston, and left my cell in the limo. After waiting in the airport for a delayed flight, we got up to board the plane and my wife left her purse on the seat. (Both items were retrieved successfully) Arriving at Yosemite, we were told not to move our vehicle for at least three days or we wouldn't have a space anywhere nearby when we returned. Prearranged activities were unable to attend without a vehicle. Plans were tossed and we vacationed on the fly. Yet...we hated to leave after one of best experiences we've had.

You managed to get some excellent shots. El Capitan, framed by greenery and reflected in the river below, is a stunning shot!

Thanks, jaymatt. Appreciate your visit and comment. You may be able to relate...Another tourist looking at El Capitan helped me to locate the climbers with a reference to a '...slab of rock in the shape of the state of Indiana.'

Thank you so much, Carol. Would not have found this on my own, but was fortunate to meet someone who had been there before. Appreciate your visit and glad you liked them.

Enjoyed viewing these!
I think that slab of rock is referred to as the "boot".
I think that is a popular "trail" to climb.
I hope to go back, some day.

Nice series, Charmdragon. Sorry you had so many misadventures, but at least you came out smiling! Makes it all worthwhile.
