Yosemite Spring 2009
I sit in a very fine chair in the Great Room of the Ahwanhee Hotel in Yosemite Valley, late afternoon sunlight pouring through the windows as a gentleman plays a grand piano, and fresh cookies and tea is served to the guests. The waterfalls leap off the cliffs, dancing and dashing their way down thousands of feet to the valley floor.
And there’s wireless here, free for the taking. You can even catch it outside along with a cold Fat Tire and views of snowcapped Half Dome in one direction or Royal Arches in another, watching seasonal cascade do just that, and a white helmeted climber slowly go the other direction to scale that 11d climb.
The past two days we skiied at Badger Pass under spring conditions, staying one night in the van and the second in a cabin in Curry Village to take advantage of the Stay N Play deal. Last night and for the next two nights we’re camped near the confluence of the Merced river where there’s still some patches of snow around and with views of Yosemite Falls! Then off to more adventures!
Details and pictures soon! As wonderful as it is in here, I’d much rather be out there–riding my bike, and enjoying life and my family outside!!
