Hey Everyone,

I just booked my flight. August 13th, Steve Kossack and I get to Tuolumne Meadows, in Yosemite National Park. I am psyched.

This year will be exciting because I will officially have stayed at all of the camps. For folks who are interested in reading my last two articles, they are linked below.

This photo of Lembert Dome was taken in Tuolumne on my first trip in 2013. The grass was still green, and I am told that is a bit of a rarity. It was the year we opened the camps up. Last year, we closed the camps. What an amazing experience. I can hardly contain the excitement.

This is a first for me. Family is taking a cruise for to Bermuda. It mostly seems like a really long boat ride as 5 days of the week we will be going back and forth. It will be an experience, I guess.

James:

I hope you enjoy cruising as much as I do. It is a really relaxing way to vacation. I enjoy sea days as well as port calls. Which cruise line are you taking?
