3rd Annual Yosemite Camping Trip Journal
For the third year in a row, I went camping to Yosemite National Park in the Sierra Nevada Mountains with my aunt (Maria), uncle (Darrell), cousin (Krystal), and John (Krystal’s future husband). I treated this trip a little bit differently than the past two trips, for one of my cousins, Amanda (Krystal’s older sister), was unable to make it this year, due to enlisting in the National Guard, and she normally is the person I was able to do many things with during the trip since she didn’t have other things she had to do. Every night I stayed up past everyone else and wrote down what happened that day and things I was feeling. I have decided to type these journals’s out and post them for my blog of this year’s trip. This trip is the only week in the entire year I mostly disconnect from the outside world, which included internet, using the phone, news, work, 4-H, and other day to day responsibilities. Day 1: May 31 st , 2009 I slowly woke up to my phone alarm at 6:30a
