Keeping an open mind here, I am going to google the lyrics to understand how this music is christian, rock genre, or 'thrash rock'. I understand it takes all kinds of people.

I just listened to that song. It sounds better mixed than the one I heard first. Still reminds me of 1990 Metallica. Like the female drummer -- something we never used to see.

I liked it! Invincible, on YouTube - thank you for that, I'd never have heard of them otherwise, I don't suppose.

Mind you - between me and the forum, I can't *wait* for this ghastly fashion for full beards on young men to be over.

Just listened to Skillet. They sound like a garage band trying to imitate Metallica.

Is, surely? Is a great actor? Robert Redford is alive and well isn't he? - or, as the regular feature in my favourite magazine, The Oldie, puts it: "Still With Us."

Stacey, I still remember Robert Redford in Three Days of the Condor and of course the Sundance Movies. He was a great actor and a great humanitarian.

Just remembered to add Gregory Peck, especially in Guns of Navarone, and Cary Grant.

Those "heartthrobs" as they were called are so different from the male "heroes" of today.

Send, you can get devices with GPS locators; I think one is called Spot. There's another one but I can't remember the name of it.

I think it's a good idea for any hiker to have one.

You could make him musical and put a cow bell on him, although that would disturb the hikers and backpackers.

Sorry - I've just watched several hours of dance programs, one of which featured foot slap dancing interspersed and complimented with bell ringing. I kept thinking how nice those bells would sound as chimes in my yard.

"Nothing like it I have never heard"

Rearranging my furniture to the tune of harvest crusade rock concert tonight my hubs is listening to. Visualize this: Satanic music trying to convert to christianity, seems to be working anyway, o dear.
What's with that? " Aye, aye, feel like a monster" heavy metal by Skillet.
me scared now, everybody say amen he says.

Yes, perused the southern entrance for a view of half dome, and like the idea of a floating tour-as long as its not a kayak, taking my own photos would be fun.

What to do if hubs takes off, do I get to leave him in the wilderness, or must I wait?
He would be having fun and be okay, but I would be the basket case asking the rangers to find him. It has happened before-but now there is GPS?

Send, I've noticed for some time that someone is rearranging the order of the posts.

And absolutely, go to Yosemite! If you're not able to do a lot of walking, just try to see what you can and enjoy the beauty of the area.

I don't know if there are guides, but I'm guessing there are a lot of facilities and accommodations for a variety of people. You might call the park office and see what's available. Or let me know and I'll post for you to see what's available.

There may be some local trails or parks that are closer that could be starter destinations.

Are you getting hooked yet?

Stacey, Someone must have pulled a switcheroo on post order, because now GardenArtist is #1341, Lol.

Countrymouse, dog dreams-wish I was a dog dreaming of pizza. How do you imagine what a dog is dreaming, sounding so real! Beautifully done.

GardenArtist, Been on a great photo tour of Yosemite at a backpacking site!
That was enough to get the tent dreaming out of the shed, if we can do that, maybe we will go! In the crisp fall season, soon, only 4 hrs, 26 minutes from home. Hoping it is not unrealistic to go camping if I can only walk less than 1 hour. Maybe we could hire a guide that would put up a tent.? 007.

Oh, and another thing! My Lucky Number is 341, and I noticed CM, that your post was 341. This is the house number of my parents and our family home, where we grew up. It comes up all the time, and of course it is insignificant to everybody but me, but I'll look at the clock, and its 3:41, on the back of a bus 341, even in the Casino, I'll win 341, might be pennies or dollars☺, but it happens all the time for me, just thought you would want to know! You must be my Lucky Friend!😉

CM, that's funny! My little Charlie-girl must have been dreaming last night too, as she was making these little humming sounds in her sleep, id reach over to pet her, and she'd kick me away as if to say LEAVE ME ALONE, I'M HAVING A NICE DREAM HERE! LOL! I feel the same way, when someone wakes me up in the middle of my fantasy dream with Sean Connery back when he was about 40, yumm Yumm!

The very best sort of dream (if you're a dog) is one where you're snuffling through the undergrowth and you catch a faint scent of a delicious pizza, and as you run up the hill, all four paws twitching busily, you see a person standing there waving a tiny slice of it and calling your name faintly, and as you get to the top of the hill with your nose on full alert and your paws going nineteen to the dozen... you wake up... and it's TRUE!!!

(Very very small slice of pizza, to reassure those concerned about dog welfare).

There are some christians reading and posting on here. To comfort them after the loss of a loved one (because they will understand), I am posting this from another person, not to offend others, not to convert or proselytize, but to encourage those who have been forced to private message due to their beliefs, which may be different than others, I get that.

about 3:00 a.m., I put on the TV and this wonderful program was on and the man was talking about Grief,of all things.It was SO good and I finally got a little answer to one of my big questions....Why are good people taken?...And he said,in the book of Isaiah 57:1-2 ...Good people are taken away,but no one understands.Those who do right are being taken away from evil and are given peace.Those who live as god wants find rest in death.....and he said in Psalm 139:18...All the days you planned for me were written in a book before I was one day old....I mean 139:16 I think and he said that we may be sad down here but they are not sad,they are very happy praising God,they marvel at Heaven...Theyv'e moved on to a better place and some day we will too.Anyway,this man was great and I can't believe I caught it in the middle of the night.It was called "Traveling Light" with Max Lucado.I always love to read Psalm 23.That is so comforting.

A favorite thing from the past. I remember almost every Saturday Mom would give me and my 2 brothers a 50 cent piece to go to the movies, the theater was only 3 blocks away. It was always a double feature. That 50 cent piece got me into the movies, and a coke and a bag of popcorn! She wanted us out of the house but it cost her! ;)

Looking out my window at the wildlife that spends time in the backyard. Groundhogs with babies, squirrels with their young, birds of all kinds and, my favorite, the twin fawns with their Moms, watching the male deer develop their elaborate head gear in the fall is also a treat. We live in a city but have these creatures are here for our enjoyment. I am an animal lover anyway so this is very nice. I have way too many photos of these wonderful creatures. I spend quite a bit of time on the pc as I am scanning old photos to put on disk. I had a large screen TV put on the wall for Mom so she can watch while I work. Andy Griffith, Alfred Hitchcock, Mary Tyler Moore, etc. is playing the background.
