[HUG ] SV: Re: IMG: Yosemite and Sam

Bob,

Some very fine photos of a world-wide-famous place.  When I tried to get into 
Yosemite back in late May 1991 (must have been 20th of May) it was impossible 
to reach because of snow blocked the road.  We tried to reach it from the Mono 
Lake side, though.
