Finally--The Last of the Nevada Notes!

Hello, Everybody! As we write this, we have just returned from a little Black Friday shopping. It was a little because Ellen has had a terrible viral infection for the last few days. (Thank you, little kids at school!)

The following several photos are just of the area. We thought you might like to view the scenery. This one is from their back yard. It had snowed on top of their mountain. It was lovely, just lovely.This was our view as we drove up into the mountains on our way to Lake Tahoe. It was stunning. By the way, Ellen's new knee allowed her to get out of the car and RUN (yes, RUN) across the road with Jason to take this picture.

There are lots and lots of cows in this part of Nevada!
This is a little church in their little town.
Isn't he pretty? This duck thought we might feed him, so he swam over to us. This was in South Lake Tahoe, California.
Just a sightseeing boat at the dock-we think it was the location of a party the night before because they were removing tables and chairs when we arrived.This ski run ends up in town!! This must be a dream for anyone who skis or snowboards!! (Joe, we hope you and your friends can get there sometime soon.) We went by the Marriott. They had a ski lift that picked up the skiers right in their lobby! It was the coolest thing to see.
This pier was right outside the restaurant where we had lunch on Sunday.

Can you imagine standing on the sandy beach of Lake Tahoe and seeing snow- capped mountains in the distance? This was our view from the table in the restaurant.

More pictures of the Lake and the mountains. . . .
This is called Emerald Bay. The Hearst Castle is tucked away amid the trees.
Finally, a picture of Paula AND Jason!
We can only imagine the beauty! This one we may see again on a Christmas card! Paula and Jason were gracious hosts for these two old ladies. We had a great time, and we thank them for showing us around their area. It is truly a little bit of Heaven. By the way, their anniversary is on the 27th. They have been married for fourteen years. Happy Anniversary, Paula and Jason.

We are sorry it has taken us so long to get all of this posted. No excuses....we are old, we work, and we get tired!! :o)
Until next time. . . . . . .....
