Yosemite 2009

We only got to stay in Yosemite for a few hours - but it was well worth it! The views alone validated the long car ride from West Point. Take a look...

Half Dome

The Ahwahnee Hotel is not only historic and beautiful, but it has family significance as well. Randy's parents attended two proms there as high-schoolers:)



Randy's mom's maiden name is Tresidder, so we got a kick out of seeing it plastered around the lodge...


The famous skier - but Momma Hahn is way cooler, and much more deserving of the fame:)





One of several extra large fireplaces at the hotel. For reference...Randy's dad is about 6ft tall.

Sooooo many cute grand-kids:)


This is the store that Ron worked in as a teenager...he picked up a walking stick as a souvenir


Which came in handy for our last family activity at the park...hiking time!!!



It was the shortest hike - but still very fun...and beautiful...
