golden beaver fever

phase one [the mother-daughter portion] of the golden beaver fever road trip is now complete. we flew into sacramento, california and drove south along the sierra nevada mountains. here's the highlight reel from the week:

  • visited the jelly belly factory
  • ate at in-n-out
  • took a barefoot stroll through sequoia national park and visited the general sherman tree
  • ate dinner at a fancy restaurant overlooking the kaweah river
  • climbed on the rocks in the kaweah river
  • drove across yosemite national park and saw a bear
  • rolled our eyes every time garmina recalculated
  • overlooked yosemite valley [el capitan, half dome, bridalveil fall]
  • hiked [and i do mean hiked] to the devil's postpile national monument and rainbow falls at mammoth mountain
  • sat in the hot tub
  • went on a bike ride around the base of mammoth mountain [my mom opted out of that one]
  • breathed a lot of fresh, thin mountain air
  • took a scenic drive around june lake, mono lake and mammoth lakes
  • lunched on the south shore of lake tahoe
