2020 Eastern Sierra During Covid

July 10, 2020 - July 20, 2020

10 days 551 miles 6 stops

Time for a road trip. We hadn’t been anywhere since February when we went to Bishop to help our son Andrew and his wife move from their apartment in Bishop to their new house, also in Bishop. I guess this means they plan to stay.

The added bonus was that our other son Tommy and his fiancee were there as well. We hadn’t all been together since Covid started. Considerate kids that they are, they had all gotten Covid tested a few days prior to our arrival and had been quarantining together as best as they could.

We decided to add some fun on either end of the visit - Tuolumne, Tenaya Lake, Mono Lake, Ancient Bristlecones, as well as lots of fun in Bishop.

I was so excited!
