NOT going camping

My sister invited me to go camping with her at Fallen Leaf, a Lake Tahoe area campground. She and her husband had plans and then he had to work. But we've been watching the air quality from the Mosquito fire, and we see days where the air quality near the campground is really bad. Tomorrow is the last day to cancel, and the fire's not nearly out, so we are going to head down 395 instead, Mammoth Lakes, Mono Lake, Bishop, Bristlecone Pine trees, the eastern side of Yosemite, maybe Manz&nar internment camp, etc. As long as it's a vacation!

Better to avoid if the air quality is bad. Yosemite is good. Have fun and stay safe

I hope you have fun camping. We're getting too old for camping nowadays but we still enjoy taking our caravan and heading 'bush'.

Might visit Manzanar (Japanese internment camp). I think there's also a movie museum (Arizona hills).
