Description
This was home while I was in Yosemite. Actually, it's in El Portal, a town of about 14 people (ok, there might be a few more!!), the kind that if you blink you miss it as you pass by. It's about 15 miles west of the entrance to the park. My tent cabin had two cots, you bring your own bedding, the showers and other facilities are a short walk up the hill. It's my kind of place~~quiet, peaceful, really just perfect. My son and I hung out on the deck till the mosquitos drove us back inside, then turned on the lantern I brought and just talked into the night. I love being in places like this, everyone there is doing the same thing, they're from all over, and it's just a good time.

Home is where the heart is...so to speak...
Looks like a nice time! I bet you slept really well there!
To be on tour is always nice. But it's also nice to come home, right!? Nice shots! Frank
great comforter you got on that bed. Was it cold at night still? I have heard of these cottages but I figured they were a little expensive - not as expensive as a hotel, but out of my range.
Fantastic captures of your little cottage! and cute dog!!!
Is that your second son on the porch? NIce place to be and Explore!!!!!
The good life indeed - simple satisfying and peaceful. Thanks for the timely reminder of what matters most. Mike
I don't think I have ever come across anything like this before Marilyn, what a great way to spend a few days. Excellent work. Bravo!!!!!
LOL, here...at first glance, I thought that was Barger's own special sleeping quarters (a doghouse)...until I read the notation. That looks like a real fun experience and don't forget all of the wildlife which was peering about while you were sleeping...lions and tigers and bears, oh my!! Well, perhaps not lions and tigers...but I wanted to quote 'Dorothy'...seemed appropriate...lol
wonderful!
Marvellous!
Marilyn, I truly believe and have expressed many times frankie96's quote, "home is where the heart is". Well done my friend...smiles
nothing like roughing it a bit ,thats why i like my caravan although it has a few home comforts :o).. mick
Be it ever so humble, there's no place like home... Very nice and spartan, with a pooch for protection. And, a wonderful and badly needed respite away from this insane, politically correct world.
What a glorious retreat Marilyn. I really envy you, but yet I am so happy that you had such a wonderful time! ::))
love to be in places like this. Not often i get a change to [just one time] but this is lovely
Kewl little place. I like it. Aloha
Gorgeous work here! You mentioned mosquitoes. Funny thing is you can probably get them avoid you by sitting a hunk of cheese out at a fair distance from yourself. Cheese smells like human sweat to mosquitoes and they go for it rather than you...if you can put it in a bug zapper then you can get a popping show! Great work with this image and your description of the place is outstanding.
I always wanted to know what those looked like inside! I'm headed there this weekend for a landscape photography workshop. My new in laws live in Mariposa so they are going to watch the hubby & kids for me ;-) (hubby just had carpal tunnel surgery)
