I will agree, Yosemite is equally as beautiful -- but if I stay in Yosemite, I do it at the Awahnee (sp.?) Hotel.
No campie!
You have to admit though with the redwoods in Sequoia -- the first time you go into that area called "The Great Forest" with tons of those huge trees all around you, it is rather magical.
Yosemite is cooler on the whole waterfall scene though.

Yes, both are ginormous and so cool to look at. Grant lost one of its branches, I guess before we were there. "Lost its branches", a phrase which here means "something the size of a large tree came off the side and plummeted through the wooden fence and the walkway around Grant". Whoo, scary.

They make such a thing??? And yeah, a camping expedition with LoT would be the swankiest darned camping trip this side of the Rockies.
We will have to keep EuroMeinke and Nirvanaman's hands off each other in the tent though....
