The wonderful woman who brought me into this world has not been to Yosemite in two decades despite only living 2 hours away. Today, I'm changing that!

We only have the day, and she's not super mobile, so I'm thinking Tunnel View on the way in, plus a trio of waterfalls: Bridalveil Fall, Lower Yosemite Fall, and Cascade Fall. Plus whatever catches her eye around the Valley.

She fell in love with Yosemite. It was so awesome being her personal tour guide in a place I absolutely adore. A terrific day we'll both remember forever.

(Also? Her 14-year old dog Zoey, who barely moves around the house and stopped wanting to go for walks, couldn't stop walking and exploring out there. Like she was 7 years younger. Nature doesn't just heal people...)

@killyourfm love that picture; it really captures the awe and love of where y'all are.

Wow it's so wonderful you got to experience this together with her, and with the pup. It looks like you had a wonderful day together. I've never been to Yosemite, but a good friend of mine has, and he loved it loads! So I can understand your love for it as well. πŸ’š Thank you for sharing!
@PixysJourney Thank you for such a nice comment. There IS something about Yosemite that... I don't know... it just never loses its magic grip on you.
@killyourfm
You're very welcome! 🌹 The picture that my good friend showed me, they were awesome. I can imagine how it just captures you in a special way. 😊 Thank you for sharing.
@killyourfm love this place as well, hoping to make it back some day.

@killyourfm A medium shot captures a shirtless man and a woman posing closely together on a sandy beach. The man on the left has dark, wet curly hair and a full beard with some gray, looking directly at the camera. Beside him, the woman wears a black visor featuring a white circular logo with the text 'EA SPORTS', dark sunglasses, and a black sleeveless top with a shoulder cutout. Her gray hair is pulled up into a bun. Behind them, the ocean shoreline is visible with white waves rolling onto the sand under a clear sky.
