Tater and I went to visit my sister and brother-in-law for a few days in the beautiful High Sierra town of Mammoth Lakes. We visited Rock Creek Lake, Mary Lake, Twin Lakes, Horseshoe Lake, and hiked around Convict Lake to the edge of the John Muir Wilderness. We took the gondola to the top of Mammoth Mountain which has the most amazing view! We explored some old mining towns. We also relaxed in the hot tub and ate good food. It was quite fun :) |

We stopped in Bishop so I could show Tater some sites around the town where I grew up |
This is the creek that ran through our yard - an offshoot of Bishop Creek - we used to float our Barbies down it and catch tadpoles in it :) |
