One of the gems along the Foothills of the Sierra Nevada Range is Yosemite National Park. From where we live the drive to Yosemite is roughly three and a half hours. We made the drive down and here is a short photo trip for you of the grandeur that we found in the valley.
At the park entrance we were welcomed by this sign:
Let’s take a trip to Yosemite!
El Capitan
Bridal Veil Falls
The valley under El Capitan

Let me know if you would like to see more of Yosemite! I easily took over 250 photos! Have a great Thursday!
Life in the Foothills

Yosemite is a national treasure. One of my top 3 destinations (when I have time).
My favorite place in the world.
WOW!! Excellent photos. Hope everyone gets a chance to visit this Gem of Mother Nature.
Wow, not much water left in Nevada or Vernal Falls. Loved the colors in the granite. Great photos.
There was not much water in the rivers at all. Very little too at Bridal Veil Falls. Thank you for the comment Janet – please come back again soon!
Beautiful! Si, it will be great to see the Ahwahnee Hotel and more stunning images of the area! Have fun sorting through the photos! z
It was an amazing visit Z!
