Back in Cali Again – Part 2

For the last week of my trip to Cali, I drove up to South Lake Tahoe where I was meeting a bunch of the guys I grew up with (same reunion as last year, when I went to Boise).

Stopped by to see my cousin Roanne’s house in Tracy – she and her husband have 40 acres, some of which they lease out, and she gave me a bunch of fruit and veggies to bring up.

Here is a photo of her house.  If you look closely you can see her in front:

Then on up to SLT – I needed a restroom break so stopped at Carson Pass.  Beautiful!

And then, I got to my room at the Hotel Azure!  We picked that hotel because it was right across the street from an RV park, where some of our group was staying

This is my view.  Not great, but you can still see Lake Tahoe!  It was also a little noisy, but it was a great room – good size.

Next day everybody else arrived and we had dinner at Jay and Carolyn’s RV.  Yum!

Next day we took a ride on a boat out onto Lake Tahoe.  Lunch was included.  It was a great day to be on the water!

Here is Kenn talking to Charlie on the bus ride to the boat!

Saw some parasailers!

This little island has a tea house on top.  It was owned by the same woman who owned Viking House (you’ll see what that is later)

The house in the middle is Viking House.  Build in the tradition of Norwegian Houses, designed by a norwegian architect.

The boat we were on used to be a corporate retreat boat.  It was pretty nice!

And then we were back at the marina.

I think I will do a ‘Part 3’ post for this trip – I have too many photos to still add!  Until then, dear readers!
