And greetings to the Jewish people of the world!

Katie and I drove with my parents to Yosemite park today and spent a good number of hours in the afternoon walking around the park and taking in a few of the waterfalls (Bridalveil and the main Yosemite waterfall) and seeing a few of the granite monsters there.

We’re currently staying at a rental house near enough to the park to be considered “accessible” while far enough away to be relatively secluded. It’s a rustic and nice place and it’ll be a nice place to unwind for the next few days. We bought enough fruits at the local grocery store to last us several outbreaks of scurvy.

We’ll probably hit up Yosemite proper again on Monday and do a bit of hiking in the less busy parts (the Yosemite Valley is, for a national park, very crowded). I’ll try and get some of the random pictures I took on my phone uploaded in the next few days.

Oh – sidenote: this house has a bunch of VHS tapes of children’s movies that were taped off of TV. Odd? Or brilliant? We’ll decide after we watch Lady and the Tramp tomorrow!
