This past weekend I made my first trip to Yosemite/Tuolumne Meadows and was in complete awe of the beauty. I can’t believe it’s taken so long to get there and I can’t wait to get back. Here are a few photo reasons to go. Above is a more eastern view of half dome.
Tenaya Lake.
The stunning vista from afar.
More photos to come. What’s your favorite national park?
The temperatures are slowly starting to drop but the sun is still shining so what better way to spend the time then to get outside and enjoy it. Rob and I headed to Muir Woods over the weekend so get a good hike in and breathe the fresh air. We ended up hiking up through the redwoods to the Panoramic highway and then back down through the Dipsea trail. It was beautiful and refreshing and a great way to have a staycation.
The trees are so massive and beautiful. Most of them are over 2,000 years old, pretty incredible.
Playing around with the Hipstomatic App. My favorite is still the Pro HDR app for photography.
The canopies stand at over 300 ft tall.
It is the true Fern Gully. Simply stunning.
Someone had strewn christmas ornaments along the trails!
We thought we might get lucky and the Tourist Club would be open but we must have missed it for December.
You can’t beat the views.

Happy New Year! We will be back in 2015 🙂
The Grand Canyon is one of the most incredible places I’ve ever seen. It’s enormity is stunning in itself. I had always wanted to see this Natural Wonder of the world and now I can’t wait to go back. It would be awesome to be strong enough to climb the canyon one day in the future. But for now, here’s my faux climbing 🙂
Walking out.
The canyons are massive!
Definitely add the Grand Canyon to your bucket list if you’ve never seen it before. It was mind blowingly beautiful!
Lake Brienz, Switzerland….
(Yes, please)
The most beautiful place in the world.
While traveling, I saw some of the most beautiful skies. One common question I get asked about traveling is “don’t you get tired of being on a plane or on a train?!” and my answer to this is always no. It may not be for everyone but I love sitting by a window and just watching the scenery pass me by. I was very lucky with weather while traveling (for the most part) so I saw some pretty great sunsets from all over Europe. Here are a few.

I love bright and colorful skies so I was quick to snap photos and then enjoy the rest of the rays as they slowly slid behind the horizon. Somehow I always seemed to be in transit while the sun was going down but I can’t complain 🙂
OK, the most beautiful place I’ve ever encountered has hit my radar… The Mediterranean rendered me speechless. Spending the past week there was the absolute BEST way to end an almost 2 months in Europe. The water, the weather, and the time spent their with my friend, Shannon, was priceless. I thought I’d leave you with these photos while I work on organizing the rest of my photos from all over Europe. I have so many places to share with you about great food, fun things to do, and of course fashion 🙂
