And the last set of pics:
The view of the valley as you enter through the Whiskey Tunnel (Bridalveil Falls is on the right, and Half Dome is sticking up in the distance in the middle):  More Mirror Lake images:  and  The view from John Muir's cabin (Upper Yosemite Falls and a bit of Lower) - the guy sure knew where to put a cabin!  and a closer view of Lower Yosemite (this is where I had the moonbow pic last year):  There's several hundred more, but I just wanted to give you a little sampling of parts of Yosemite

Wow - love the light thru the tail showing the colors!
I used to have a nicer camera, but after I had kids, I moved to a point-and-shoot that I could cram in the diaper bag ...

Glad ya'll liked them, and I hope you can visit someday. It's also the home of El Capitan, the largest granite monolith in the world and a mecca for climbers. It's fun to go to the base at night and follow the climbing cracks up with some binoculars until you see some climbers nestled in for the night (not my pics)  or making dinner, just hanging there ...
