Yosemite National Park brought back such good memories that I had to do another virtual sketch. This one is of one of the most scenic spots I remember seeing...Tuolumne Meadows. I can just imagine the meadow filled with flowers or filled with snow. Either way it would be beautiful. My thanks to the guides from the NYC Urban Sketchers who have been working hard to make sure we have a new virtual destination each weekend.

Yosemite Accommodations
On Saturday the NYC Urban Sketchers visited Yosemite National Park virtually. As for previous virtual events our guides provided us with a website with access to photos and videos of Yosemite. I started thinking about my visit to Yosemite many, many years ago. My sister, Fran and her husband had moved out to California and my friend and I flew out to visit them. Fran wanted us to see some of the area and arranged for the three of us to visit Yosemite. We stayed in a tent somewhat like this one. None of us were exactly campers but the tents were on raised platforms and had beds. I also remember having to lock up anything that faintly resembled food in a special box to keep the bears away. I guess it worked because we didn't have any bears visit.
