YOSEMITE FAMILY TRIP

Honestly, if my kids remember more than the squirrel inside the restaurant, I’ll be impressed. We had the best day hiking through Yosemite National Park as a family. But, that squirrel. He was unforgettable! “Skippy” made his presence known by brushing up against my ankle while we were waiting on our lunch. After I calmed down and everyone at our table quit laughing at me, we watched him zip through the dining room, snagging crumbs from under the tables until someone shooed him out with a broom. He came back. And he entertained us while we ate. We even bought a squirrel Christmas ornament to represent our trip to Yosemite!

Did you know there is very little cell signal inside Yosemite National Park? So, we actually used paper maps out of necessity and worked on land navigation without any complaining or google maps cheating. This nerdy mama loved that!
