Hi, my first post on this great forum.
I'm heading to Yosemite in a couple of days; my first visit ever. We will be driving from Oakland airport and will need to pick up groceries, lunch, and denatured alcohol on the way. Any suggestions where to do this?
The other responders have covered it pretty well on groceries. Denatured alcohol has been available in every hardware store I've ever tried. This one, in Oakdale, should be only a few blocks off your most likely route:
http://www.acehardware.com/mystore/index.jsp?store=10656&cid=localstore10656On the map at that site, you'd be coming into town on 120 from the NW and leaving town on 108-120 to the (roughly) ENE.
Better gas up in Big Oak Flat or thereabouts. Beyond there, gas gets more expensive and there's none at all in Yosemite Valley.
--------------------
Uh-oh -- that map at the hardware store's website is wrong! It shows the store on B Street but it's actually on F street (a.k.a. 120 and 108) -- right
on your route.
Better map
here.
