Yosemite











We left San Francisco this morning, drove down Lombard street on the way out. We went over the Bay Bridge to Oakland and shipped stuff home including the bullhorns and busts lol. I've already gone through 4 memory cards. I can't wait to see all the pictures. I'm going to be scrapbooking for the rest of the summer! I'm going to need to get a part-time job at Joann's or something. Anyway we headed to Yosemite. At one point we were over 7000 feet up. Wow. There was snow on some of the mountains. It was about 45 degrees up there. We saw deer, elk, wolves and a few other random animals; alas no bear. :( we really wanted to see some. There we encountered the most windy mountain roads we had ever seen. It was freakin amazing! It was funny down at the Yosemite store I fount a ton of gluten free food, but I doidnt really get anything because we were going to go to the lodge for dinner because they have some kind of celiac menu, but the boys could wait 15 minutes for it to open and had to go to the food court which is where I sat outside and called Sarah and Starr. Oh well. I feasted on a pluot, almonds and dried pineapple I got at "the barn" (coolest place ever btw). I was driving this morning and as we drove through farm area there were a ton of produce stands and I had to stop! Everything is so fresh and yummy! I will just say ... A giant bag of fresh almonds for $4. I also got white cherries, strawberries and dried bananas for later. Mmmm. I've actually been eating pretty healthy on the trip aside from the several trips to In and Out Burger! Mmmmm. I like meat again. A whole new world has opened up to me. :). I can't wait for denver and mexican food and gf pizza and baked goods for the road! Actually, I'm pretty excited to see zion, camp in bryce and go back to arches. This has been the greatest adventure. Everyday we have seen something new and amazing! I still wish I could have seen height/ashbury but I guess that will have to be another day. Anyone want to travel with me? I'm dying to see the Pacific nw.
On the way to vegas now. We should be there by 6am. I don't think we can check in until later so we will find a bar/ casino and have a good ole time. Lol. Don't worry mom ... Ill be safe. Oy
