Yosemite National Park
October 2012

I loved being in Yosemite this time of the year.
See, I did a little photo punching of color with a treatment.
Wandered around with my camera every day.
Ended up at the Awhanee in late afternoons for a glass of wine and watched people.
No I didn't stay at the Awhanee, we camped in motor home with husband.
Been really busy, dealing with our son and family moving to Colorado in October.
I was heartsick for days when I heard they were really leaving.
Knowing they are happy, and my two grandsons are adapting so well, it makes it better.
I am flying to see them December 18 - January 3!
Can't wait to see their new home, and their turf.
The age of technology allows me to be like other grandmothers living far from their kids.
I make the effort to call, email, facetime, skyping in the future, and made self addressed stamped post card for the grandsons!
AND they are sending them!
So yes I do get snail mail...


I loved hanging out at the stables in mornings.
Fun watching people get on horses.
OK, well the cowboys were fun too!


But the horse women!
Women were running the stables on the days I stopped by, they do a rotation with the guys.
This young woman was so sweet to the mules they saddled up for people.
Besides that I love braids and red hair.
She was an easy target.

I look forward to seeing what you snap while in Colorado. I know you'll have the time of your life. happy Thanksgiving to you Jane.

Ti auguro un 2013 che inizi bene, prosegua come desideri e che termini con grandi soddisfazioni.
Ti auguro di camminare su una strada chiamata vita, di inciampare in una pozza chiamata fortuna, di cadere in un abisso chiamato felicità.
Ti auguro un amore sincero accanto a te che sappia comprenderti e guardarti nel cuore con amore
per ciò che sei.

Yosemite is one of my favorite places and brings back such memories. As a child my family would spend every summer vacation there. There was nothing more beautiful than watching the firefall and listening to Indian Love Call.

Its like you read my mind! You seem to know so much about this, like you
wrote the book in it or something. I think that you can do with a few pics to drive the message home a bit, but instead of
that, this is great blog. A fantastic read. I will certainly be back.
