What is a YOLT? Well, you may have heard the term YOLO. Gary and Sherri think we can live again, not as James Bond, but as being reborn. Consequently, we are having fun in our life, after all, You Only Live Twice.

The Superintendent's Office was originally erected by the Army at Camp A.E. Wood in 1904. It was moved to Yosemite Valley in 1906 and used as a residence until 1958, when it was moved back to Wawona to the History Center. This office, 15' x 12', is a l-1/2 story, board and batten structure, with a steeply pitched gable roof. The redwood roof shingles and board and batten siding are stained dark brown. The front facade features a simple porch, a four panel door, and a small 6-light window on the gable end. There are two casement windows on the north and south sides, each has 12 lights. (NRHP)
