Camping at Lake Tahoe

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

So we spent a few days camping at Lake Tahoe with SysGuy's extended family. It was delightful, and as you can see, ridiculously scenic. That's not a backdrop. Bizarre.

This is officially the most recent photo of the Things, SysGuy and me. All the families took similar—good grief, why wouldn't you!! There was a fairly strenuous hike to get up to this little lake above Lake Tahoe, a path with lots of vertical made of blocks of granite, the majority of which had been somewhat carved into recognizable, if not particularly even, "steps."

Below are photos of our campsite, with the TentMajal about to be furled. In the second photo you can see the other campers with our group (we had 7 tents I think) and on the side is the bear box that came with our site—and yes, it saw some bear action during our visit. Poor bear got nothing from our group but an exploratory chomp on a box of plastic cutlery. The bears totally have a system down; slap the door on a bear box to see if its locked, and move on to the next one if the door doesn't bounce open. Impressive.

Then closeups of the filthy Things as we were leaving. Thing 1 is working on his John Waters hot cocoa mustache. I love how the lens on my camera makes their noses really huge and puppy-like. Last is Thing 2 hair contrast, because its amazing.
