Weekend Road Trip: Yosemite, California

Yosemite National Park is located in east central California. The park covers a land area of 750,000 acres, roughly the size of Rhode Island. The park’s elevation varies from 2,000 feet to above 13,000 feet.

Yosemite has three groves of Giant Sequoia trees.

Yosemite is also home to the Yosemite Writers Conference. Here I am at the conference with one of my writing idols, and good friend, SJ Rozan.

SJ Rozan, Denene, a few friends, and I decided to ride through Yosemite on horseback. (Sorry for the shadows. The guide took this one).
