Catching Summer By The Tail

They say 'good things come to those who wait,' and since I have been putting my head down and cranking through a hard project for the summer, I was due for a little fun-time in Tahoe. My Madden project wrapped up just in time to get up for a week of serious activity and R&R before the three day weekend & what will likely be the last big hurrah for the Tahoe summer. A week of mountain biking, hiking, waterskiing and rafting was followed up by a FULL house up in Tahoe. Many great faces showed up for the usual fun for the weekend.




After a long summer of work, this view was very welcome


Checking out new trails and rewarded with some nice lake views


Early AM ski sesh with some great water


Mom cranked 64 turns – and then her arms fell off


Needed to get the legs moving in prep for the Yosemite trip


Hot day so Ellie needed a dip


One of the five lakes


My favorite lake


Headed back – the mothership in the far distance


Loaded up for a day on the SF American


Crain & I opted to R2 for the day


Things getting squirrelie


Boys day at Downieville


Two flats and my arms were spent – thanks for the help Maher


Cold beer after the great ride


Chef Maher cranking out pizza apps


Dinner for 15 & baby JJ is first to the table

Good times with good folks

Bumpy & wet ride back West


Some solid late fireside chats
