    Beautiful shots above. I wish I could make it out there too, but its the super busy season at work. :cry Perhaps next time, if a trip is not in May.


    I have an idea for the site programmers here. Fit each DGrinner at Yosemite with a GPS transmitter, link them to a super-imposed map of the NP, and let all of us not going on that trip to track the group(s) in real time. If they could also transmit some smallish JPEG's to a Smugmug gallery in real-time, then all the better.

    That would be geekishly awesome. My guess is you would need a sat link, since there is no reception up there for most providers. :cry

    Bad news (or good, depending on what you use it for). Last time I was there,
    mine worked :cry

    You would not belive the number of people that call someone from the top of
    Half Dome :D

    I don't know about everyone else but I am looking foward to a few days with NO Blackberries. They are evil.. I think my wife's thumbs were permanantly attached to hers. It's bad enough I'll have to take my cell phone with me. As far as I am concerned the D-grinners can wait a few days for the pics..:D

    When discussing with your immediate superior, absolutely.

    I have to laugh. Once a division controller came back with the story that
    she dropped her pager in the toilet, retrieved it and figured the best way
    to solve the problem would be to remove the battery and leave it in the
    oven over night (gas pilot). Except for the moisture in the display, it
    seemed to work ok :D

    Thanks for sharing,
