Yosemite

As I said the natural beauty never fails to please the senses.
Perfect weather. Too much food and drink.
Nice long walks. Loads of laughter. A wonderful two full days.
Heading outside late at night in my socks and jammies to search for the Orion constellation was fun. Never found it of course, but after living in LA for over 20 years where you see two stars and planet at most, it is such a simple pleasure to look into the night sky and see the billions of them that are actually out there.  The couple above were waiting for the free shuttle. I assumed they hiked into Mirror Lake. Was nearly certain he'd gone to the big Yosemite in the sky but saw them the next morning outside the cafeteria. Alive and well and ready for their next adventure.

That couple on the park bench look like straw-filled dummies! Are you sure they were real people???

They were indeed real people. Couldn't help but admire them for still being able to get around. Also the ability to nap in the sun without a care struck me as a lovely way to enjoy life.
