The Cabin with Steve & Susan

We had a fun memorial weekend at the Cabin, Yosemite and Bass Lake with Smylie & Susan.  It was much colder than we thought.  We even had a sprinkling of snow while we were at Yosemite.  We certainly had on and off showers which meant that we had lunch at the Awahanee while we waited for the weather to improve.  It is still such a beautiful and majestic place.
Here we are at the view of half dome.  You can see that there wasn't that perfect view.  It was still wonderful. 
 You can see Yosemite Falls in the background.  I like this hike.  It's easy and so beautiful.




 I've never seen so many dogwood blooming before in Yosemite, or anywhere for that matter.  There were hundreds of blooms. 








Here we are at Vernal Falls. 


We took a hike up Willow Creek.  Unfortunately, my cameras battery ran out unexpentantly.  I wanted to take a picture of Smylie sitting in a basket held up by a cable as he thought about crossing the Creek. Scary!   But, instead, you just get a great picture of Db at one of the first pools up the Creek.  This is a great hike.


Here we are out cruising on Bass Lake.  The weather finally warmed up, so it was nice.  We got to see one of the eagles that soars above the lake as we cruised.  I love boating on Bass Lake.


Susan holds the boat while DB parked the car.
