Yosemite National Park- Manteca Ca.

Thur.  We did some shopping and went to the bakery one more time!!!  This time we got the two lemon bars along with lemon cake and molasses cookies.  We spent the afternoon with Richard and Shirley.  We got the rig ready to leave and went to bed early.

Fri.  We got up at five did our Bible study and went to the dump station.  We had problems with the gray tank, we got going and drove four hours to Yosemite National Park.  The last forty miles were the worst we traveled because of the winding road.  At 25 mph. It took awhile to get here(bottom left). The camp site is wonderful.  It has 50amp. water, and sewer.  We are on a creek which is very relaxing.  


Sat.  We washed the rig then went for a boat ride.  When we got back we ate and drove to the valley to Yosemite.  On the way we saw two bears(top left) and Linda saw some deers. The sunset on the flat rock mountains were beautiful.  We stopped at the village and got some coffee.  It was dark on the way home , the moon being almost full helped us see.

Sun.  We got up to go back to the park.  We heard a hum and found it was the transfer switch.  We turned it off then on which made the hum less but still have us worried.  We drove to Glacier Point 7214 feet.  We took lots of pictures along the way.  When we got there we were able to see a hand glider take off from there.  We walked around to see the different views.  When we left we found a place that we could do our bible study.  We then drove back down to the valley 4214 feet and took pictures of El Capitan(bottom right), Bridalveil Falls(middle right) and Yosemites Falls(middle picture).   We were so glad that we went to the see the park at night and in the day.  The sun on the mountain at different times made it seem like a different mountain.  We  drove home and relaxed for a while then had dinner and went on another boat ride.


Mon. We relaxed, did some work on the rig, and got things ready to leave, played putt putt.

Tues. I thought we were slow going up the mountain we only drove 20 mph on the way down the mountain.  Linda even drove the car so we would not have the push from the car.  I was so happy to get to the park in Manteca Ca.  After we got here we drove to the mall to get our computer.  We had the wrong destination in our gps and we went 52 miles out of our way.  We did get to see some of Ca. that we had not decided to see.  We did pick up the computer and it works without losing any info.  We went to the rig and crashed what a stressful day.

Wed.  We went out to the lodge and planned our future and caught up on the blog.
