Happiness is a Day Trip

I am here at Lake Tahoe and
there is magic at 6,000 feet.
...Frederick Lenz

Well, don't tell anyone but we snuck up to South Lake Tahoe for a few hours on Thursday, though it is still closed to tourists. The weather was perfect and we ordered take out dinner at one of our favorite places. In between, I saw lovely tulips in bloom, the lake, pine trees, granite mountains, snow on a peak, Bridal Veil Falls and wind sculptures by Lyman Whitaker. My husband kept getting attacked by a small but determined starling when he got too close to her hidden nest in the bushes. He also lost and found his money clip. All in all, a fun adventure after nine long weeks of stay-at-home orders. We felt like we were playing hooky! Nice on Black.

How lovely, I know exactly how you feel. We drove up to Birubi last week (only about 7 km from where we live) and I felt like the naughty schoolgirl sneaking away from school.

Sounds like a sensible, low risk strategy to recharge the batteries. And your collection of photos shows what a wonderful day you must have experienced.

Your joy at being free shows through your photography! Tahoe is hard to beat - especially when you've been cooped up for so long. Looks like we may be getting closer to normal soon!
