Found out that Tioga Pass opened last week, so had to get up there before the snow melted. It was a nice trip. This was my first solo trip to Yosemite since my surgeries a few years ago. I met a couple of photographers; Harvey, Randal and Randal’s wife (sorry I can’t remember your name). I nearly froze my fingers walking to the car from Tuolumne Meadows, but it was worth it!

Outstanding Mike, I’m so glad you were able to get out there and take some shots, a good sign.
