Happy birthday Supe! I know what you mean. I've got around 3,900 miles of hiking, climbing & backpacking mostly in the Sierras, but also the tour of Monte Blanc, Acatanango in Guatemala and a few other places. I spent two weeks in the Sierras around my 60th birthday, so hopefully you'll have some good years to enjoy.
Aerkuld,
If you want to avoid mosquitoes in the Sierras, go up after the 10th of August of so. No mosquitoes, probably no bears, and fewer people. September & later is even nicer. You get cool nights and nice days (a few nice storms) with fall winds blowing pine pollen in the air. I always like to stay above 10K feet elevation.
