[Leica] IMG: revisiting some old images of the eastern Sierra

[abridge at mac.com (Adam Bridge)]

Thanks for your observations and suggestions, Bob. Greatly appreciated.

We're planning on going back up in October - times/dates working around 
weather, etc. We're going to Yosemite in early November with a group from 
the bike club for some hiking, although I'm not certain how much of that 
I'll be doing.

If you have some favorite places you'd care to share I'd sure be interested. 
I think we'll take four days, two of them working out of Bridgeport to do 
Bodie.

I'm trying to wrap my head around when things might perk up, color-wise, in 
the Sierra this year. With all the moisture in the late spring it could be a 
fabulous autumn.

Healing is going great. Hip surgery is a breeze compared to knees and my 
knee surgery last year wasn't difficult by any means. I'm impatiently 
waiting to be allowed to drive. I know it'll be at least Thanksgiving before 
I'm allowed on my bike again. Sigh.

Thanks!

Adam
