Wild Crazy Snow -- Yosemite Valley -- Day 4


The Buried Table


My Truck, Also Buried


Well, by Tuesday, it has been snowing for three days. The people left in the valley are talking of cabin fever, and I am starting to feel a general dampness creeping into everything. I went down to the Village Store and out to the Mountain Store for some gloves and a more convenient hat. Later, I would abandon photography altogether in favor of a hot shower compliments of the Curry Co. I walked back to camp from the Village after lunch and managed to find a few shots. It was getting harder to stay warm, keep my camera from getting fogged up, and stay focused on photos.

...we Minnesotans take pride in being able to outlast 4 months of winter.

It may be winning this year, though.

Yeah, I know. I was thinking ... three days ... that's about enough time for a good book or to knit something ...

You noticed that I didn't even stay in.
