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.
