A Day Out in Tahoe City

Ben has decided to help me with this post so I will simply type as he dictates.....

"It was Grandma and Grandpa and me and Sam standing together. And it was not a very good picture because Sam was turning the other way."


"That's the river coming out of the lake and the bridge. And look at the trees!"


"I was hugging Sam. Sam and I were in the bushes and the monkey flowers were yellow. But the purple ones were not monkey flowers."


" And that's Grandma hugging Grandpa."



" That's the lake with the parasailer up in the air."

And now, Ben will type his own story....

"This is my Curious George story."

And now my take on things....
We took Friday morning to visit Tahoe City's Gatekeeper's Museum and the famous Fanny Bridge which received its name from all of the fannies that can be seen from the road as gawkers stare over the edge into the cool waters. The bridge is located over the only outlet of Lake Tahoe. The Gatekeeper's Museum features the history of Lake Tahoe including Indian artifacts, natural history displays, stories of our pioneers, and the Ellen Attardi Library - a research library which includes books, oral histories, newspapers and photographs. It also houses the Marion Steinbach Indian Basket Collection which was not only beautiful but HUGE!

After our sight-seeing we went to a well-known Tahoe City Mexican restaurant called Blue Agave - Mexican Food with Altitude! Sam was a big fan of the chips and salsa even going as far as to reach into the salsa bowl sans chip to get a handful of the good stuff!
