I climbed Half Dome back in the 90s

before the permit was a thing. Probably a half-hour wait at the bottom and top to ascend/descend, but worth it. The hike just to the base past Vernal and Nevada Falls are worth it in itself.

I really want to go back to Yosemite and spend a week or two

The good thing about Mt. Rainier is that you can drive up 3/4 of the way...

You should go back and try the whole dome next time instead of half. **
