Camera Caper

Saturday was a perfect weather day-so we played hooky and went to Yosemite for our first picnic. We explored Wawona and some of the side roads I didn't know even existed! Jack was very proud of the fact that he found a camera on the white elephant table at the clubhouse so on the way to Yosemite we stopped in Oakhurst so he could buy film and photo batteries (they were very expensive!).

The infamous tree....I was standing right there when Jack asked me to take his camera-I thought I had it in my hand but it slipped and fell on my shoe then tumbled right over the cliff! Jack found a resident nearby who knew of a way to get down to the water and offered to go down and see if he could find the camera-and he did! It was in the water but Jack is hopeful it will still work. Now, here's the kicker....I told a friend about this incident -she said it was her camera! She had put it on the white elephant table just a few days ago! Strange happenings...

It was so nice to see wildlife meandering through the trees.

This is one of many views of the creeks that feed into the South fork of the Merced River.

There's a walking bridge at the end of the road-a very special place!
