Hey Spartangirl, I'm really enjoying your trip report! I'm another west coast Michigander (do we still use that term?) out here in LA; I'm originally from Rochester Hills Michigan. You name aside, (I'm a Wolverine, class of '04 ) I'm loving the pictures of San Fransisco and along the coast. You're hitting places I hope to go to in the near future!
Anyways, keep up the great report!
Hello and to my TR (even if you are a Wolverine! ) !!! Wow...Rochester Hills, MI...that's only about 45 minutes from where I live in Livonia.
Thanks for the compliments about my report! I'm glad you're enjoying my pics too! I hope that you are able to make it along the coast in the future......the sights are truly spectacular!
Hi Spartangirl! I as well as Angrypenguin am a former Michiganian, now living in Orlando. However, I made the right decision just as you did, to attend the best University in the state, MSU!
What a fabulous trip you had! Your pictures are a beautiful illustration of your words. I will be making a trip to DL and San Fran in just 24 day. I am so much more excited after reading your report! Thanks for sharing!
First of all, welcome to my trippie!!!
Yea!!! Another STATE grad! Go Spartans!!! I bleed green and white seeing as though they got my money for both undergrad and graduate school.
Our trip was incredible!!! Thanks for the compliment about my photos. It's so nice to be able to share them! I am so excited for you.......wow, just 24 more days!!! You're going to love your trip to the west coast!
Hi Lynne,
I absolutely loved your latest installment.
Oh my goodness...Yosemite is beautiful. When I saw Half Dome I instantly thought of Ansel Adams. I am sure the exhibit of his work was outstanding. I have always admired his work very much. Your photos are wonderful as well. The couple shots of the bird and squirrel were great...I have to tell you though, I have a hidden fear of squirrels. They just terrify me. Not really sure why.
It looks like you and your DH were having a wonderful time.
Looking forward to more....
TTFN

One quick question: How much time would you recommend spending here?
Hi Darlene!
Glad to hear that you like Ansel Adams too......his work is fantastic and so inspiring! Thanks for the compliment about my photos as well....
That's funny that you say that you have a hidden fear of squirrels. I couldn't believe how close the one squirrel got to us. I snapped his picture, and then ran a few feet away from him. Chris was laughing... It scared me a bit......but, they really seem unaffected by humans.
We spent only a day and a half at Yosemite and wish we would have had more time......I would say that you would want at least 2-3 days, especially if you enjoy the outdoors. We LOVED our time in the park and felt that we only experienced an "overview" of what was really out there.
i am loving your tr i have never been to yosemite it is so beautiful i am excited to hear about monterey i have been there wow $475 for one round of golf. i would just stand next to the 18th whole too
I'm glad that you are enjoying my TR!!! Yosemite was quite breathtaking and we loved Monterey too. We honestly wish we would have had more time in both places......there is much more to come!!!
