Lake Tahoe (Nevada side)

Had a meeting out in Tahoe, and this was on our route back to the airport.

Our chariot of fire...that climbed up to over 9,000 feet. There were still snow banks 5-6 feet tall, in the beginning of May. Funny thing - we stayed in a casino that overlooked the lake (of course my room faced the parking lot) - but the first time we left the casino was when we were done with the meeting altogether - i.e. we never left the hotel (suppose the casino designers did their job well). Sad - in this beautiful place and never got to take a good long time and look around. Arrived late on Wednesday (loooooooong story about that - later), meetings (in hotel conference center) Thursday and Friday, and the only restaurants were in the hotel! So, Friday afternoon we took the scenic route back to the airport - which was the first clean outdoor air we breathed all week.

Didn't win big this time at the craps table...oops. Need to go back to Carson City and Reno where the tables are a bit friendlier. :-)
