We didn't have any real plans for the rest of the weekend.  I didn't want to go home, but everyone else was ready to go home.   I compromised on going home Saturday.  I talked the kids into driving up to Glacier Point with me. 

Tunnel View - this became our 2009 Christmas card.

I had packed my daypack with plenty of water, snacks, and CJ's cell phone.  CJ decided to hike down the 4 Mile Trail on his own, while Robby and I drove back.

CJ hiked all the way back to the campsite in about 3 hours.
