Great pictures, I'm actually liking this "no snow" right now. I've checked out your other posts during your roadtrip. You passed right thru my hometown of Gardnerville I've lived here 14 years and love it. 395 is an awesome road so much to see and do, I also enjoy highway 88 "G"Ville to Jackson great drive.

Great pics DianaT. Thanks..... Sure brings back old memories. Folks used to take us camping up there back in the 50's and I go every chance I get now. Never get tired of it. Ya gotta love Yosemite if you've ever been there....



Don\'t mess with the old dog...... Age and skill will always overcome youth and treachery! Brilliance only comes with age and experience..... :smug: .... :P .... :smug:

Twenty years from now you\'ll be more disappointed by the things you didn\'t do then the things you did.

Again---Muchas Gracias---we had a great time and hope to be on the road as often as possible --- time seems to be catching up with us!

Glacier Point is such a special place. I love the famous picture of John Muir and President Teddy Roosevelt standing there and the story that says that is where the President decided it deserved federal protection. Muir was upset over the exploitation that California was allowing.

I get paid to go there!!!


None of the other Techs in my shop like to go there. I have worked out first refusal on any jobs in the Eastern Sierras with my foreman and have been the primary tech for any of the automation jobs we have at the Substations and Hydro Plants there.
I love it up there!

Thanks El Vergel--- we enjoyed it even with the limited time we had.

estebanis -- it is lucky for you that the other techs must be crazy. :yes:

Just one more pix. There were some ice skaters, but this is what crazy young people do when they see a frozen lake.

First they throw large rocks to make sure it is frozen and then they pretend they have skates on.



It was fun watching them fall all over each other.
