Yosemite bug

Today we drove 350 miles from the south up to the Yosemite national park. We arrived late afternoon after a fairly uneventful drive which included our final drive past Los Angeles. We are staying at Yosemite Bug which is a hostel and camp site and they also have a barn which we are staying in for two nights just up the road. Bit isolated feels a bit like we might get a visist from slack jawed Cleatus (Simpsons reference). I am writing this from the bedroom where wireless internet coverage is provided and where cell phones get no signal. There is no running water (provided from a well system). We do have electricity though. Tonight when we came back from the main camp there was a mouse on the outside veranda. Hopefully it will scare the bears away. Looking forward to a tour of Yosemite Park tommorrow. Enjoyed swim in river this evening which was warm and clear as the sun was going down. At its hottest today we had 102F on the thermostat but feels milder now.
