My eastern residence (GF’s home) is close to Sonora, Ca. We can drive to Yosemite in a couple hours. Sequoia and Kings are a few more hours south of that for us, but the only time we were both ready to go, we couldn’t for some reason that my stoner brain cannot recall any longer.
I want to go to Death Valley and Mt. Whitney too. All in my backyard and I’ve never been. But I did eat mushrooms in Joshua Tree at sunset (back in the 70s), so I’ve been around! Heh!
For some reason, that was the most memorable sunset of my entire life! Honest engine!
