Being on amazing trails is what my husband and I love to do.

This is Mirror Lake in Yosemite National Park, California USA.
The lake is at the foot of Half Dome in the east part of Yosemite Valley.
We took a nice long AND scenic trail eastward along the lake and up Tenaya Canyon.
We found a nice place on Tenaya Creek to sit and enjoy our "sorry" lunch that we carried along.
We're not very good planners for packing food.
We don't want the bears to smell anything too good.

There are reflections just about everywhere you look on this beautiful little lake.

I took countless photos of Half Dome along the trail.
Every sighting of this amazing landmark is a photo op!
And...the sky...fabulous for a long hike!
We sat right on the edge of this creek for lunch...we sure didn't want to leave.
This is the view if we looked up during our lunch...not bad!
That's Half Dome through the trees.
There were a few obstructions along the way.
I can't resist another view of the beautiful Half Dome beneath that beautiful blue sky!

Very beautiful, Carolyn!
When I visited 20 years ago it was more like Mirror Puddle and the park rangers were telling us it is slowly turning into Mirror Meadow. I need to go back before it disappears. Beautiful photos.
