Tahoe Tahoe it’s off to camp we go!

When we woke up this morning, the sun was in our eyes from the small slit under the shade. Being it was so bright out, Dan decided to get a few more drone shots. After a short photography session, it was pack-up and then off to the dump station. There was about 6 hours of rolling time so we thought it best to get on the road.

About noon, we pulled off for fuel, lunch at Huckleberry’s, and a grocery shopping trip. Then back on the road where we happened to find a car wash. Dan was able to wash the car and camper. It is amazing how much road grime accumulates, and it feels oddly satisfying to wash it all off and have a nice clean car and camper again.

The rode into Tahoe was steeply down with lots of big drop-off’s and no guard rails. Shortly after, we found our campsite and set up. We had hamburgers on the grill, complete with sides. The Tahoe Valley Campground is very nice. There was almost half occupancy, but the camp plots are quite small, and the campers line up only 20’ or so apart. Lots of young children running around and riding bikes, scooters, and other rolling objects. Big playground with fun outdoor games, and an outdoor movie theater (it was too light when we walked by it, not sure if they show a movie every night). Seems like a great place with young kids where you can just let them run and find other campers to play with.

Melissa gave Dan a “Summer Cut”, we went for a walk, a couple of games of Rumikub, and then off to bed.Read more
