Dispatches From Olmsted 
https://www.wbur.org/2015/08/07/olmsted-yosemite-report
Nice article and interview! I have great memories as a kid in Yosemite Park – a stay at the lodge with my family, and hiking up Half Dome and sleeping on top of it w/my summer-camp. Gerry is eloquent and compelling on Yosemite and on Olmsted’s vision of nature as art, his creation of the Emerald Necklace.
