We returned to the Bay area in another quick three-day trip, this time mostly I-15, I-84, and I-80, and spent a few more days preparing for a moderately successful flea market experience at Palo Alto High School. Rather a different experience from Route 200 in East Missoula! (No one practices open carry in Middle California). After that, and its aftermath, we took P to Yosemite for a promised camping trip. We were there--Northern Pines in the Valley and then Crane Flats--five days and four nights. Yosemite was a little less smoky than Missoula, but there were still large fires in the vicinity. And people, thousands of people, including many Europeans.
