Lake Tahoe is undoubtedly one of the prettiest places on earth. A beautiful blue, crystal clear lake located at an elevation of 6000 feet, surrounded by the Sierra Nevada mountains, many of them snow covered most of the year. Lots of gorgeous scenery. And of course lots of spectacular multi-million dollar homes.
In any case our friends Terry & Marci live in Reno and we decided to visit them in Reno while we travelled back home for a family get together in the Outer Banks of North Carolina.
“Biggest Little City in the World” is Reno’s self-proclaimed sub-title. And the is more than a little truth in Reno’s advertising slogan. It has a great combination of typical city problems plus the distinct challenges associated with legalized gambling, all inside an incredibly small footprint (for a western city; eastern cities lack the choices that plenty of available land presents).
Lots of great motorcycle riding. We went all over the Sierra Nevada’s around Lake Tahoe and the surrounding counties. Beautiful is both over-used and under stated in describe the rugged mountains, alpine forests, and lakes still frozen in late June…
See Ya!
