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.
