"As long as I live, I'll hear waterfalls and birds and winds sing. I'll interpret the rocks, learn the language of the flood, storm and avalanche. I'll acquaint myself with the glaciers and the wild gardens, and get as near the heart of the world as I can."

-John Muir

At a size of 1,200 square miles of pristine wilderness, there was much more within Yosemite than Nick and I could see or do in any single trip. Forests, meadows, lakes, waterfalls, ponds, granite cliffs, trails and roads, I honestly wanted to cover it all but had no idea of how dauntingly huge the park really was. I haven't been to Yosemite since I was a kid when I was chauffeured from activity to activity and given plenty of entertainment material in the backseat of my parent's van. Now, as the driver crossing hundreds of miles to get to and travel around within the park, I truly appreciate the enormity and grandeur of it. Because there can be no end to new and awe inspiring experiences there, Nick and I are determined to return. That said, I want to share a bit more about this past trip (other than being stupefied by Yosemite's size haha).

In lieu of being more productive with my time, I mashed together a short video:



The clip is from that glorious night of Sushi and Rock Band debauchery but a weekend ago. Roger is on the guitar (or was it bass ..?) and Aimee is on drums. Nick's arm also briefly appears! /cheer :P

I hope you can garner some amusement from these; I know I did when making them. Also, film majors, pls excuse the crappy editing ...as I am in illustration and know nothing of this alien FCP interface.

Also, some recent photos from the movie night with Jeannie (phoenixdown7  ) and another Rock Band night w/ Matt (zebe ) over the Mike/Andy/Jo's mansion!
