Livin the Life - Tahoe 2013

[Tackerdown]

The water was really really hot and you could feel it radiating ust standing next to it. I was tempted to touch it directly but, getting my hand just above the water got me thinking about it twice. Cindy suggested that we stuck a rag in it, pull it out, allow it to cool a bit and then touch it. Even at that, it was too hot to handle for more than a few seconds.

Good call , you would have had less than a half second for 2nd deg. Burns. Although it probably would be doable it does hurt a little , yes speaking from Experiance. Not intentional .

The fireworks over Lake Tahoe were awesome last night!

Never something you want to see...

Damn. What general area?

I'm pretty sure it's this fire - http://www.inciweb.org/incident/3492/

About 5 miles east of Gardnerville.

 

[Sharkey]

There is another one north of Reno.

I suggest heading to a big body of water for the rest of the day!

Check out this site. I have never used it but seems to offer a wide variety of options beside staying in a hotel.

Carson City is about 30-45 minutes to the East.

Agreed. You'd have to have an idea of how you want your stay to be like. The casinos offer some good deals and of course, food/entertainment is close by but, if you want to get away, you might want to look into renting a cabin. If you want something affordable but not in a casino, there are a host of motels in South Lake Tahoe. When we run the Rubicon, we typically stay at the Super 8 as they have ground units right next to where you park so taking off your doors is easy and storing them pretty cheap. Of course, the rooms are just okay at best. When we're up here for July, we stay at a timeshare in South Lake Tahoe.

Awesome, thank you for info. We will look at both options..
