Things are looking better on the Rim fire. The smoke is much reduced, but there is still active fire in some areas. If you plan to travel along Hwy 120, be careful, and keep an eye out for fire apparatus and personnel.
From our local news today:
"Yosemite National Park Officials reopened Highway 120 to all vehicles at Noon today."
"Motorists can drive to the Yosemite Valley from Highway 395 via Highway 120. However, Park Officials say due to fire activity in the area stopping along the roadway is strictly prohibited. They warn the public to use extreme caution as firefighting activities continue in the area and visibility may be reduced due to smoke."

"If you want nice fresh oats, you have to pay a fair price. If you can be satisfied with oats that have already been through the horse; that comes a little cheaper."
Just came back across. The mid-week storms cleared up all the smoke that had filtered into Mono Basin etc. Very nice now. I avoided Tioga Pass. But there is still
a bad traffic knot (about an hour delay) on 395 just north of LeeVining due to repaving the Conway grade, which should be completed in a week or so, right on time
for those who like to visit this area for the aspen color. I'll try to post on that a bit later today.
