Lake Tahoe
"At last the lake burst upon us - a noble sheet of blue water lifted six thousand three hundred feet above the level of the sea, and walled in by a rim of snow-clad mountain peaks that towered aloft three thousand feet higher still! As it lay there with ...
Scenic Highways and By-ways
So, really not too much to report today. Originally I thought I would be doing some hiking around Lake Tahoe but a combination of lethargy and a failure to find nothing but 'primitive back country trails' (and we all remember what happened in Arches NP!) ...
Lake Tahoe
It was bye bye San Francisco and hello open road again. We drove north again and stopped off to catch up with Zoe Wheatley at the dressage stables she is based at which was lovely and functional and her boss seemed like a very nice lady. She had some ...
Mt Rose
I woke up early today. It was the day that I visit my local stomping grounds, Mt. Rose. I head up there every time I go home. It's the closest resort to town and it is easily seen from the city. I spent several seasons skiing there. All of the high ...
37 days, 2 people 1 cat, 11.9 cubic ft trunk
The great counter clockwise Western State Tour begins. Sally planned this out more than Eisenhower planned D-Day. Every day is plotted from sunup to lodging at end of day (cat-friendly lodging which is phenomenally hard to secure). So: we need to pack ...
Exploring the back country
Today was a pleasant day. The weather was somewhat crummy in the higher elevations. We're expecting a storm. The best snows in the Sierras happen when the cold Alaskan air makes its way down from the north and meets the moisture laden air from the ...
Lake Tahoe, saying goodbye
The tears start as I hit the Mt Rose Summit with Annie Lenox's "Why" playing on the radio. I am flooded with memories I've been pushing down. Jeff telling me he loved me for the first time, planning our wedding on the deck with Bill, Donna, Mom and ...
Stuart Little's Adventures
My son-in-law nicked name me Stuart Little which is in a story in itself but suffice it to say its hilarious. Being short and little is explanation enough. Stuie has traveling companions; my husband Pete and our two Ragdoll cats, Lucy and Mickey. We all ...
Closing the loop
... sniffing at the window; she knew where we were. It was dark when we entered Nevada. Three miles later we were at our Incline Village, Nevada home. We put 3,952 miles on the Z4. It was a wonderful trip and we saw so many gorgeous places ...

Late Fall in Tahoe
They Said: Our short, relaxing weekend on the North Shore of Lake Tahoe for Alli's birthday consisted of lakeside fire pits, multi-game parlay bets in the casino, and a lot of sleep. On Friday, we drove over Mount Rose and into Tahoe, where we headed ...
Face First in the Snow
First and foremost we would like to apologize for the GIANT gap between our last entry and this one. Just to remind you, we left off in Sacramento and had just killed it at the Merrell “Down and Dirty” mud run! Sadly we also had to ...
Ahhhhh Lake Tahoe....
... the rear view mirror, my truck is a bit of a behemoth and tough to drive - but she killed it! Nextstop, North Lake Tahoe and Incline Village. Mike and Hannah are staying one more night, and the plan is to either do Mr. Toads again or shuttle a trail ...
Terror Drive to Lake Tahoe
... with her former personal training client. We met up with this client, her husband, and her son at the Hyatt in Incline Village. The restaurant was right off the lake and had a really nice view. We were sitting outside which was pretty ...
Tioga Pass, Mono Lake and Lake
... off for Lake Tahoe and climbed over the mountain before heading down to follow the shore to the north of the lake at Incline Village. We found David and Dawn's condo easily thanks to Dawn's great directions. David acquired the condo through his business ...
Final entry-What we took, packing up the car
Every day, the car was _very_ carefully loaded to the absolute maximum, so much that if it wasn't done just right, the hatch wouldn't close. And when it did close, the first thing to be done was to lock the car, lest some bump or pothole would cause ...
