Wet at Yosemite

Hey guys and gals,

Jack and Kay here wishing all the mommys a happy mothers day!! We left Sequoia and the giant trees and made it to Yosemite !! We are running out of time so we are having to hit the major areas for pics and just driving through some of the others.

Bridal Veil Falls is just like a post card---Amazing!!!!! The El Capitan looked massive and majestic!! There are still roads closed for the winter with lots of trails, lookouts, etc not accessible. But the best part was the walk up to the falls itself... They should have put signs up with warnings of 100% precipitation... (or we could have read the brochures they gave us... duh).. Anyhow, you are so close to the falls itself that you are drenched... Makes for terrible hairdo's and bad photos the rest of the day.. Jack was making fun of my hair at Walmart because it had grown twice its usual size from all the moisture and bad case of frizzies... not funny.... Ok.. let me back up and say.. we have stayed in some great motels.. and some pretty bad ones.. last nights was the worst... We stayed at Best Budget Inn in Fresno... and I'm usually easy to satisfy but this place was awful... dirty.... no toilet paper..(thank goodness I took some from prior hotel) and stinks... PLUS.. I'm pretty sure either the dude a couple doors down was either running a drug cartel or a prostitution ring all night long.... I didn't rest much at all.... Jack just looked out and says a liquor store connects next to us... so that explains all the traffic all night long... geez... also the window in the bathroom doesn't even lock.... Jack jerry rigged it with a hanger so I wouldn't feel unsafe (yeah right).. Made him go to the car and get Dwayne's gun and my mace just for extra peace of mind... I'm gonna miss this place... (not this hotel) Yosemite & Sequoia.. but our journey must take us in the direction of good ol' Kentucky home.... but until we can get there we have 7 more states to go thru... Stay tuned for the next episode of Westward Bound... who knows where we will wind up... Love to all...
