Lake Tahoe

This was the first time I had ever seen Lake Tahoe.

It was overwhelmingly gorgeous!

When we turned the corner and it was just there it literally took my breath away!

I had no idea!

We had no idea what we were doing.

So we parked because you could tell that parking was an issue and we walked to where we thought we were going. But it was the wrong way and treacherous behind the guardrail! So dumb!

We did get some gorgeous pictures though...

 

We happenstance found the trailhead.

We played Hunger Games at this awesome open area at the base of the trailhead.

The pine cones we chucked were HUGE though and we had some injuries! YIKES!

This was a GOOD HIKE!

It was challenging enough..probably felt harder than it was becasue we been held up in a house for 5 months! Our bodies were surprised to be moving for real again and for a consistent amount of time. It helped so much that a little rain could hung over the sun on our way back so we were kept cool. THANK YOU JESUS!!!!

We played a little in the water, but everyone is nursing some INTENSE sunburns, 

so we couldn't stay too long. Blisters had developed on everyone at this point and it was no good!
