North Tahoe: Quick Weekender
Some times plans come together and you get to do something fun. As many of you know I'm spending a lot of time in California this Summer working on Titanium. Fewer of you know that my kids are spending their Summer driving around North America filming for their first documentary Sprawling Apart, Growing Together. The kids just happened to come through the same time my youngest sister and brother-in-law were starting their Summer Anniversary event, Wainright The Gathering 2010. They've rented a cabin in Tahoe Vista for a week of game playing, outings and other mild mayhem. I spent a goodly part of this last weekend playing Dominion -- one of my favorite board games.
I discovered early on Sunday that there was no caffeine in the house so I took that as an opportunity to take a 1.5 mile walk into Kings Beach to grab a cup of coffee at The Java Hut. The coffee was good. I loved the ambiance. Tip: If it's hot, sit in the back near the walk in freezer, much cooler.
The only real problem I had in the area is that it's not as pedestrian friendly as I could have asked for. Crosswalks are almost non-existant and you really don't want to cross the main thoroughfare without them. But it made for more exercise which is good too.
Here are several photos I took during the walk.
I also create a panorama from Kings Beach.
