Yosemite N.P.

Even though you got to enjoy Kathlene’s post of my ballerina impersonation, we did do other stuff besides dance around on slick rocks. The sky was clear, the weather was warm as long as you stayed out of the shade. There were several feet of snow in the meadows and on the valley walls. It was a great weekend in Yosemite National Park. We had such a great time we decided to go back this weekend.

We will be staying in this little B&B in Mariposa. As Kathlene described it “It’s like being at grandma’s house”. I am not sure if she is referring to my Grandma Howard or to her Grandmother. It is all the same you feel warm safe and comfortable. If you find yourself going to Yosemite, I would stay at least one night at Poppy Hill Bed & Breakfast in Mariposa, CA of Hwy. CA-140.

As I said before Kathlene and I had a great time in Yosemite. We spent Saturday on the valley floor. On Sunday we went up to Badger Pass ski area. We attempted to go snowshoeing. We got a late start so we only shoed for a few hours.

I think between Kathlene and I we took more photos in two days at Yosemite then we did the 10 days we were in Guatemala. I think our final count was 1500+ Photos. I think I had one or two images turn out OK.

If you would like to purchase the complete K&K trip to Yosemite National Park, we will be selling them for the one-time low price of $29.95 + shipping and handling.

Yosemite Fall (no, I did not forget the "s")

Can you spot the surefooted mountain goat?



I couldn't find him either...

All I saw was Kirk landing on his caboose.

Group Messaging

Sorry, for any confusion that may have come these last few emails. I am trying to set up a group email. This group email will allow everyone that is listed in the Via Alegre blog to receive an email message alert saying a new message has been post to the blog.

Just incase anyone doesn't want to be in the email group, a link to unsubscribe will be in the email too.
