Yosemite ??? [Tentative Dates]

Hi friends,

Oh boy...it's been a while, right?

Well, I'm still alive. :)

I'm sorry I've been MIA for the past few months (and years)...been busy with work and volunteering / traveling.

I sincerely hope you all are doing well.

Things have been crazy recently...so if anyone else needs a mental health break -- I'm thinking of camping and relaxing at Yosemite National Park in mid-June.

I miss hiking, hanging out in a river, seeing waterfalls, being in nature, etc...

If anyone else could use a break and/or doesn't have summer vacation plans, please feel free to continue reading.

Okay...so for months, I thought I'd just work during the summer to save $ for traveling to volunteer --- but some campsites at Yosemite opened up on May 15, and out of curiosity, with no expectations, I got lucky and reserved one campsite between June 15 - 22.

I'm not 100% yet on which specific dates I'll go...maybe something like June 15 - 19 or June 17 or 18 until 22.

Anyhow, I want to mention it today in case anyone needs time to check with their boss / manager / supervisor / HR for inquiring for potential time off.

I should decide in the upcoming days.

I'll also add a Google Doc with more details / info by the end of this weekend.

Drive time to Yosemite Valley is around:

5.5 - 6 hours from LA - https://goo.gl/maps/tBceNbZdRvgW7uz77

6 - 6.5 hours from OC - https://goo.gl/maps/QbHyzwnx3nN1GWVTA
