Leaving Kennedy Meadows and heading to Mammoth

At Aaron's place, we were given a tour around his ~40 acres property. There, we had the opportunity to shoot some guns, which was great fun. We enjoyed a delightful dinner and did some star gazing. The next morning, we continued our journey and drove down from the Eastern Sierra towards Mammoth. Along the way, we visited a dried-up waterfall that showcased fascinating volcanic structures. It was extremely hot, so we were grateful for our space umbrellas 😆

We proceeded to visit some hot springs near Mammoth. Unfortunately, I started feeling worse again and began experiencing UTI symptoms on top of that. So, we became acquainted with Mammoth Emergency Care. They diagnosed me promptly and prescribed some antibiotics. They were very kind. We had to pick up the antibiotics the next morning before we could start our drive into Yosemite National Park.
