YOSEMITE DAY 2
Day 2 was simple enough.
We took the free shuttle bus to the Marioposa Grove of Giant Redwoods for a day hike, grabbed some ice cream, and then took a nice nap before dinner.
If you ask me why I go camping, one reason I will tell you is "trees". Yes, trees. I enjoy San Diego and it's a fun place to live, but if God calls me to Tahoe one day.... I wouldn't complain. I SOOOOOOO MISS THE TREES. I love the smell. I love the sound of the wind rushing through them. I love birds chilling in them. I love the trees. I love the mountains, I love the streams, I love the trees in them.
So we went on a 4ish mile hike to go see some of the biggest ones on the planet. (click on the pics and they'll get larger if you wanna closer view)
I also love wild flowers and the meadows.
only to be slightly surpassed by french press java and napping in my hammock by the river a mere 10 feet off the river.

Hooray for the French Press.
I have to ask about that last picture though - did you tell Shannon: "Here, I'm going to lay in the hammock and this will be the napping picture in my blog post - can you take a picture of me?"
nope. I reached my arm out and snapped my own pic thinking, "this is my napping blog post"
Okay, got it. :) I'm glad you're having a good time, it looks like a blast. Can't imagine camping with such a huge tribe. I was patting myself on the back for a successful camping trip with just Janelle, Belle, and I - but that's like single-A ball. To be able to camp with a huge family AND actually feel relaxed/having fun is quite the accomplishment. And I think it means you and Shannon work pretty well together.
Once again very impressed with your pic taking skills. That place looks awesome, we are so going when the kids get a bit older.
