Once again we attended the California Bible Conference in Yosemite Valley for a week from July 11-17, 2010. The weather was gorgeous for the entire week. As before, we enjoyed touring the vallley floor on our bicycles. Bob took another group on a hike up to Glacier Point towards the end of the week . And we had a very special 80th birthday celebration for Bob's father, Fred, at the Awahnee Hotel. Many of the events (excluding the bicycling) and more have been captured in photos and can be viewed by selecting the link to your left. Special thanks to Katherine for her efforts on meal planning and all those who helped prepare the wonderful food we all enjoyed.
