I know for you non-Californian's some of these pictures are not unfamiliar in idea. FWIW, they were all taken the same day and within 20 miles and a couple of hours.

Thanks again to Press for another outstanding Snakes!

Yes, it was cold, and I was a bit concerned about the low temps, since I don't run anti-freeze in my SPF. Why would I? I don't drive when it's "that" cold...

Yikes! Looking at the last pic posted by Tom, I think I need to change my description on my Driver's License where it states hair color

Thanks, Press, for planning another great STTL!!!

Randy - that's just the flash. At least you HAVE hair to worry about color.

Looks like it was a lot of fun. And if figures you guy's go on the one day it rains and snows!

Is that the Nordic house or Swedish house on the west side of Lake Tahoe? (I forget what it's called but it's something to do with someone out of the Nordic region of Europe building that house right off the lake and it's now some historic monument... I think...

It is the Thunderbird Lodge.

The "nordic" house your thinking of is called "Vikings Home" on Emerald bay (west shore). The Thunderbird lodge is on the east shore near Incline Village.

ah, thanks. I stand corrected.
Still, that's a great way to store a boat for the winter!

The walk to the boat house was incredible, 200ft long 4'x7' cave cut into rock that exited to the view (like the picture with Randy) into that beautiful boat.

see ya,
Mike
