The BK's + Yosemite = great combo

We arrived in Yosemite after dark the first night.  We got up early and raced to Bridalvale campground and locked down a site for the next two nights.  We waited impatiently for the Brian, Rachel and Sadie to arrive and when they did we took off for our first hike.  Sadie and Ash were thrilled to see each other and didn’t even seem to notice the view from atop Sentinel dome.  The next day we got up early and hiked some more before returning to camp.  We had a very noisy night thanks to the Techno-Twins but Brian and I struck out early for a tent only campground.  We got “the spot” at Yosemite Creek and stayed for three nights.  Rachel almost ripped her toe off on a rock but after performing some self- surgery she came through like a trooper.  We hiked, hung-out, had a great time and cooked as little as possible.  Can’t even begin to say how much fun we had and we have to leave to go try and get backcountry permits so ya’ll should just check out the pics!
