What a trip, what a time.   When you are surrounded by such a mass amount of nature with beauty so magnificent it brings tears to your eyes; even the loudest mind is forced to shut-up.

  I had the great opportunity of joining my love and his family on their yearly trip to Yosemite.  And when I say yearly, I mean this kid has been going to Yosemite for 26 years now, since he was 2 months old.  His mother had been here every year since she was 4 yrs. old and so on.  So it was quite the privilege to go to one of the most beautiful places on earth with professionals.  
 We ate well, drank well, and lived well.  Every day was an adventure, and at the same time, more relaxing  than the next.  Hikes, waterfalls, wild life, and Half Dome give you a glimpse into the magnitude of this majestic landmark.  I'd have to say my favorite part of the trip was river rafting.  The water was not at it's fullest so it was more like river floating but I preferred it that way anyway.  You just cruised down this crystal clear river while gazing up at the mountains and floating by waterfalls. Pretty amazing, to say the least.
 I had such a wonderful time.  My mind, body, and soul feel replenished.  Some quality time with good friends and good family.  I'd say this was quite the trip.  And how lucky are we, all across America, to be in driving distance from this place of ultimate creation!  We're lucky.  And I am thankful.
