Day 11 - Mammoth Mountain to Red's Meadow Resort...

After breakfast on the patio, the ladies took the trolley into the town of Mammoth Lakes. Here they spilt up and some went shopping and some went to the local hospital...


Posing...


Clang, clang goes the trolley...


Janet gets her leg looked at...Ouch!

**********

The doctor tells Janet that she does not have a stress fracture. But, she does have a severe shin splint. The treatment - "STAY OFF THE LEG!" I think the diagnosis hurts more than the leg...

While Janet and Linda are at the hospital, Nana, Kris and Vicki go shopping. Nana buys a new tent as her current one is wet all the time. Vicki buys some new clothes and Kris replaces her nice sunglasses that went swimming during a water crossing. This time, she also adds a "floatie" eyeglass strap.

About this time, I arrive in town with the re-supply goodies, more booze, snacks and gear. I meet Janet at the Mammoth Mountain Resort and we head into Red's Meadow Resort to secure the cabins which we will have for the next two nights.



Red's is at the bottom of a long, deep canyon (el 7750'), literally behind Mammoth Mountain. The rest of the ladies will take the shuttle from Mammoth and arrive a bit later...


Nana's and my cabin...


The "Mulehouse Cafe"...

After everyone arrives, we all go to the cafe for dinner. We are a bit late so we miss the standard meal but settle for hamburgers and sandwiches. Ah...but dessert is homemade pie a-la-mode...Very Nice!

Before everyone heads off for bed, Nana and I head to the top of the canyon to catch sunset over the Minarets and Nana is able to make a few cell phone calls to family and friends...
