A Visitor

Two nights in a row we had a visitor walk through our campground.  You can see how big he is by seeing how tall he is compared to the dumpster.

Monday afternoon

Sitting here in the shade of the rig enjoying the warm temps.  I finally downloaded the driver to allow me to view the photos on my camera.  Here are two. 


The lake.

The pool.

Monday June 9, 2014

   It's Monday morning.  Mollie let me sleep until 6am today.  Normally she awakens around 5am and her nails click-click-clicking on the bathroom vinyl floor wakes me up.  I get up, throw on my sweats, and take her out to smell the world.  After that she gets fed and happily goes back to bed.
   Being Monday, we are soon off to the pool for excercise.  Tomorrow, we head to Carson City as a group to visit the Stewart Indian Museum.  It is the field trip for the First Session.  I will tell you about it tomorrow with a couple of photos too.

Monday 6/2/14

   Our second day off.  Sunny and nice.  70 today.  Water aerobics at the South Lake Tahoe city pool.  One hour of hard work makes you feel a lot better.  We get wet on Monday and Tuesday because those are our days off.  Sundays finds us loafing around ejoying the fact that we do not have to get up at any specific time.  CBS Sunday Morning is part of our routine.  I have recorded it on our DVR so we can view it when we want.
   Last Sunday afternoon, we took a short hike up to Fallen Leaf Lake which is a mile or two south of our location.  Taylor Creek runs out of it and flows north and becomes one of the tributaries of Lake Tahoe.  The Upper Truckee is the other major one along with Eagle creek and others.  The lone outflow is the Lower Truckee River









Suring our hike we explored the remains of a large home that was built in 1921 for Anita Baldwin.  The footprint shows that this summer home was more than 4000 sq ft. with the front porch built to overlook Fallen Leaf Lake.  Notice the chimney for the double sided fireplace.
