Drove up Tioga Pass so we could spend one entire day in Yosemite National Park, at the peak of fall color.

We finally drove around the entire White Mtn range, getting to see them from nearly every angle possible. The pictures in this album were all taken east of Hwy 395.

Most of the pictures in this gallery are from the Sierra canyons and lakes west of Hwy 395.

Summer in the back yard is all about finding shade, cooking up a bounty of garden vegetables, and getting to eat dinner outside every night!

June in the back yard is all about tomatoes as well as roses on the vine. And the crab cactus!

April in the back yard is all about bulbs in bloom.

Springtime at the Zoo.

A perfect spring day for a hike in Escondido's Harmony Grove.

Winter makes one last stand.. just as brother Kevin from Florida comes out for a visit, bringing along son Daniel and daughter Kailene.
