2016 California Vacation
Photography road trip: San Francisco, Yosemite and Sequoia National Parks, and West Coast Highway #1
My vacation arose on somewhat short notice when I realized how much PTO time I needed to use or lose before year end. With just under a month to plan I jumped onto the NPS (National Park Service) websites to research Yosemite and Sequoia National Parks. I upgraded my AAA memership to take advantage of premier services. And, I purchased my airline tickets and car rental. I would fly into San Francisco, pick up the rental car, do a little city sight-seeing, get overnight accommodations outside of town, and the next day begin my road trip in earnest. The plan was to spend most of my time exploring Yosemite, get acquainted with Sequoia, and enjoy part of the West Coast on my way back up to San Francisco to fly home.

Posing Point on Glacier Point
People love to pose for pictures on this rock outcropping at Glacier Point. If you compose your shot correctly it will look as if you are on a dangerous precipice when in fact there is a walking path directly beneath you. Good fun!
