Left Hanging

I am so sorry that I didn't finish our trip blog earlier.  Here's the end of the trip in a nutshell:

We were supposed to stay in Lee Vining until Sunday.  We woke up Saturday morning and had a hard time coming up with something to do.  We drove the June Lake Loop, which is a 16 mile loop around four lakes about 5 miles from where we were staying.  Including stopping for breakfast, this took us about an hour and a half. 

We then drove up to the top of Tioga Pass back in Yosemite.  We didn't plan this in our trip, but that weekend was free National Park weekend.  The park was busier then when we had stayed there earlier.  All together, that took us an hour.

Back at our cabin at 1:00pm I looked at Scott and said "what should be do now?".  At the same time, we both said "head home!"  I ran down to the front desk and asked if we could still check out and not have to pay for Saturday night.  She said no problem, credited my credit card, and told me that we have about 15 minutes before the maid went home so we needed to hurry.

Suddenly we were on our way home.  We stopped at a camera shop in Carson City, and again in Reno, to pick up some filters we had used in our photography class earlier.  We also stopped for dinner and at Scheels in Reno.  Back on the road, we were set to arrive home late.  Luckily we were able to get the UofO game on satellite radio so that killed part of the drive.

We spent Sunday doing laundry, grocery shopping, and putting things away.  It was so nice to have that extra day at home before heading back to work.

Yes, back to work.  Two days down, three more to go this week.  I am excited though because we are having friends from out of town visit tomorrow night!

One last picture from our trip.  If you look close, you can see that the first "E" in Yosemite is made of duct tape.
Thanks for joining us on this journey.  I am going to try to keep this blog going on a regular basis.  Don't hold me to that, but if you have a few minutes, and nothing better to do, check back.
