I am convinced that Yosemite National Park is one of the most beautiful places on this planet. We were blessed to be able to spend 4 days there last weekend.
Some of our favorite spots were:
Upper and Lower Yosemite Falls
Lower Falls
Bridal Veil Falls
We were able to get pretty close to this waterfall. The spray was a nuisance for picture taking, however!
Mirror Lake/Half Dome
The view of Mirror Lake in the front and Half Dome in the back was breathtakingly beautiful!
Alan tested the water temperature. He said it was very cold!
El Capitan

People from all over the world come to Yosemite to climb the face of El Capitan.
We found the spot where climbers access the mountain for the ascent. We were so disappointed to see that the SW Face was closed. We were so ready to climb to the top. Haha!
Truthfully, this was the only way I was going to reach the top!
Merced River

This beautiful river was just behind our room at Yosemite Valley Lodge.
We took our camping chairs to the bank of the river and listened to General Conference talks while taking in the view.
This is a panoramic view of the area. You have upper and lower Yosemite Falls on the left and Half Dome just right of center. It was such an amazing view. It was my favorite view in Yosemite.
God created a beautiful world for us to live in and enjoy, which I appreciate immensely. But even with the pine trees, water falls, rivers, granite mountains, etc. that I was surrounded by, my gratitude went to God's greatest creation and greatest gift to me - the wonderful man standing in the picture below. He is my rock and my joy. Life would be completely empty without him in it. I'm so grateful that we could share this adventure called life together for the past 43 years. My cup runneth over!
