It takes me through Yosemite and by Mono Lake.
Is Mono Lake worth seeing?

Old Man on a Connie said:COG SW DV Meet and greet is still on. I will be contacting the lodging venue to make sure they are still clear and will advise. In the meantime these rules will be enforced by the sergeant at arms (crap we have no sergeant at arms) No Bro hugs, 6 foot limit. Elbow bumps only, no high fives or fist bumps. Sharing of shot glasses will not be tolerated unless disinfected first. Kisses will be allowed but no tongue. Sloppy seconds are highly discouraged. Archer is under self quarantine. You can wave at him through the window of his trailer. Yvonne will serve. I will provide mineral spring water hose downs as needed.

California Governor Issues ‘Stay at Home’ Order for Residents

California Gov. Gavin Newsom issued a statewide order for all of the state’s residents to “stay at home” during the coronavirus pandemic.
“We need to bend the curve in the state of California,” Newsom said in an announcement. “There’s a social contract here. People I think recognize the need to do more. They will adjust and adapt as they have.”
“Home isolation is not my preferred choice … but it is a necessary one,” Newsom added. “This is not a permanent state; it is a moment in time.”
In accordance with the new “stay at home” measure, dine-in restaurants, bars, clubs, gyms, and fitness studios will be closed. Public events and gatherings of people are also not permitted.
