Wi Fi

   Wi Fi is nice.  So is cell coverage.  But here on the south side of Lake Tahoe, it is only marginal at best.  I am sitting down near the lake itself to get enough cell bars to use my Jet Pack.  If I get too far away, or back at the trailer;  no dice.  The mountains and too many visitors put a strain on the system.  It is frustrating.
   Enough growling.  Our first two weeks are over, The site is open for business as of Saturday.  Both Randa and I have given our first Pope House tours so we have that under our belts.  The weather has been pretty good.  The first week was cold both outside and inside the buildings. As time went on the temperature outside warmed up but the unheated, insulated buildings remained cold.  Working with the volunteer crew is the highlight of this place.  Nice, interesting people who have the same desire as we do, get the Tallac site open, repaired, and ready for visitors to enjoy.  The volunteers really love it here and it shows in their work.  There are so many opportunities to show off their skills and passions.
   Then there is the area.  The lakes and mountains are gorgeous!  There is more snow this than in any of the 6 years we have been coming here.  The mountains surrounding the lake are still showing lots of white covering.   My battery is too low to include photos so til later...
