Home Again, Home Again, Jiggity, Jig - No. 2 Yosemite National Park

I realize that fires are a natural part of the cycle of life in the forests, but I hate to see the devastation left behind (especially when it's caused by carelessness). The news of the fires at Yosemite have me thinking about this beautiful place. We had the privilege of visiting early this summer so I thought I would share some of the sites with you.

Yosemite Valley - great view of the falls on the right

Majestic

Scares reveal previous fires

It's hard to imagine that this Sequoia has witnessed the sun rise and set everyday for over 1,000 years!

Beautiful red trunks from which they get their name - Redwoods

At the foot of the falls

A Dogwood blooming in the forest

Lovely ferns and log

This was the bed and breakfast where we stayed. There were Sequoias growing in the yard.

The sunset on our first night in the park.

Here's a Heart Rock for your Pocket:
O Lord, our Lord, How majestic is Your name in all the earth! Psalm 8:9

Wishing you God's best,
Elaine
