That is a beautiful drive Andy. Since you are so close, will you visit Mono Lake too? It is worth the little detour.


Yes, we have a night at Lee Vining to do Mono & a quick trip up to Bodie before Yosemite.

Winning while sitting in the sun (temp ~ 14c) and the wind is getting up from nothing. This chilled beer is good.
It's good to be back amongst friends and colleagues

There is no quick trip to Bodie. Last couple of miles of the road are dirt and I'm advise you to go slow if you want to keep the fillings in your teeth.

Winning while giving you an amazing web page. Click and drag your mouse around. Scroll with your scroll button.

Well worth the click! If you haven't seen Michelangelo's work in person, this is the next best way to see it.

360 degree view. I've always wondered where the tithings go. Now I know! Also while clicking the link, go to full screen by pressing F11.

There is no quick trip to Bodie. Last couple of miles of the road are dirt and I'm advise you to go slow if you want to keep the fillings in your teeth.

Not to mention keeping the car intact, Like an axle, tranny or the engine itself.

It's not that bad!

Just remember the last three miles aren't at a mile a minute, more like 10 minutes a mile.

If anyone has extra time and they are on US 395, almost any side road up into the Sierra will take you to a beautiful place.

Good evening everyone!

Andy Worth recently announced here that his travel plans this summer involve some time in the SF Bay Area. Andy and his traveling companion have arranged for a Seti tour at 4pm on Sunday 6/20 at the Space Sciences Lab in Berkeley. Afterward there will be a barbecue at our home, along with an evening of Raccoon Feeding and General Raccoon Entertainment. Any friends of Andy who can get to the Bay Area that Sunday are most cordially invited to join us for the tour and barbecue. We are calling this little celebration "Andyfest USA"!

Uli has already reserved the guest room in our home, but if you need a place to stay, I can help make arrangements.

If you and your significant others wish to attend, RSVP by pm to me and I will send you all the details.

Fondly,
Angela

P.S. Only two things could potentially cause a change in plans. The first is that darn volcano. The second is the fact that I have a very ill brother who may need me at short notice. Barring bad news from either source, we are going full steam ahead with party planning!!!
