A couple years ago, 
I traveled with my travel buddy (the fiance) to Yosemite National Park.
I had heard about this place before.
You know, heard how amazing and beautiful it was.
But, i’ll be completely honest, I was not prepared for Yosemite.
 
Yosemite is an absolute treasure.
And one of the most, if not the most, beautiful places I have ever been lucky enough to view with my two eyes.
It is a place where, even for just a moment, time stops.
It’s just you- surrounded by completely raw, natural, and spectacular beauty.
A place man played no part in shaping.
 
It is one of my favorite places in this world.
 
If you are ever planning a visit to California, 
this should be a the top of your list.
 
You will not be disappointed.
I promise.
 
To enjoy its full beauty, 
plan some hikes,
get up high, 
and see the park from different angles.
 
Just get lost.

    I've been here for over 3 years and haven't been to Yosemite yet. People have promised me that I might see bears, but I won't be eaten by one.

    The plan is to change this situation this summer! The husband loves it there… He climbed up to the top of Half Dome last time her was there.

    Can't wait to go after seeing these pictures!
