We made it to June Lake, CA. We're right outside of Yosemite. Took us about 7 hours. We went from 112 degrees in Death Valley (stick your head in the oven for a good feel) to 62 degrees near the lake.
As we rolled into our campsite...THUNDER! Jo gave me a quick tutorial how to set-up her tent. I was quite proud of myself (while cursing Mother Nature under my breath). It started to pour shortly later. Jo and I left the tent (she assured me it's waterproof) to go for a ride and came across this lovely coffee shop with Internet access. SCORE! As I type, the young man with a trucker's hat is giving Jo and I the history of June Lake and the varying water temperatures of the lake. I'm listening to him, sort of, yep, gotcha, uh-huh, cool...But for $5/hr for Internet, it's worth it!
So, as I finish typing, the thunderstorm is over. It SHOULD be the only rain for tonight. I hope, I hope, I hope. Tomorrow, we're up and out and heading to Napa...another 6-7 hrs away. Our college friend, Leah, is going to meet us Sunday at the hotel. Can't wait!
