Absolutely Awesome.... Drove by your place in Ridgecrest on the way to Death Valley, a couple of weeks ago, but it was very late and you were closed.
The business you inspired me to start is just taking off Deep Reflections

I will never forget the evening you, Tracy and I spent at the back of Stan's truck, consuming adult beverages and discussing life in general. So many good times

Pay very close attention to Lee Vining Canyon Road. I suspect getting to Tioga Lake will not happen until June. Mono County will start plowing April 15th their side, when the budget kicks in, but until they plow all of 120/Tioga Road they keep it closed due to avalanche issues, which will be a huge problem this year. With Tioga Lake inside the park boundary you might not be able to get that far.
Ellery Lake, which is roughly the same, but lower in altitude should be attainable in late April.
Same may be for the Bristlecones. You may be able to get to the Sierra view, which is simply awesome. As the snow melts they open the gates going up. In May in a snow year like this year I was able to get to the Sierra View but not much beyond.
