Say hello...

My mom used to dance in a troupe and she gave dance classes as well. I don't remember what she told me about this photo, in terms of what it was, but there is a date of 1948 shown, so at least I have the year right.

This is the Mist Trail heading up to Vernal Falls (317 feet). This is one of the most beautiful trails I have ever been on. The roar is overwhelming, the mist covers everything in a fine spray and makes the gray granite mountainside green. The very best time to visit Yosemite is in May before Memorial Day. You have to put in a permit request for a campsite in January though, so if your thinking of going its too late. ;) (PS. I happen to know the best camping spot in all of Yosemite Valley)

 

For Way Back Wednesday, taken in May 2003 on a backpacking trip with our good friends the Rudds.

These two were taken by my uncle, one of the coolest photographers I know. These crappy scans don't do them justice.

 

Anyhoo, lemme tell ya a little bit about this dog. This is Simon, my grandparents' fifth child. Nearly every childhood memory I have of my grandpa includes Simon. He got his own scoop of ice cream every night. He loved toothpaste. He knew every one of us by name. He was at my aunt's wedding.

 

He was one of those rare beasties, ya know? I thought he deserved his own Way Back Wednesday.
