Much ado about Tahoe

I've always wondered about people who love Tahoe.  I've heard a lot about it.  Everyone wants to go skiing at Lake Tahoe, everyone wants to vacation on the lake at Tahoe...  You've heard it too.
Heck, maybe you've even said it, "Gee, I wish I could go to Tahoe..."


So I've always wondered but I've never known.  This was remedied this weekend, thanks to my (not so) little brother and his go-cart of a truck.  Now, although I firmly believe that Reno is nothing more than Vegas's slower, slightly smelly younger brother, Tahoe is a different story entirely.  In case you're curious and unsure about your vacation plans for this summer, let me spell it out for you.

Tahoe is worth the trip.

Reno is not.

Hopefully, this has been helpful to you.

Now, for those of you who can't make it to Tahoe, but want to see the proof, I've got just the thing for you; Photographs!  Its a picture heavy post, but I've kept the commenting to a minimum in order for you to really be able to experience the beauty of this place. (By now, you know I'm lying, right?  I just can't resist.)

Before we begin, may I reveal even more of my ignorance, please?  I learned something this weekend, even before the conference started.  I learned that Tahoe is partly in California!

Who Knew?!

Also, I need to acknowledge that without my broseph, none of this would have been possible.

Goodbye Reno!  I'm going to visit your much more attractive cousin, Tahoe.
Peace out, homeboy (home home hoOome boy)

I might be able to afford this vacation home... but probably not the land it sits on.

To get to Tahoe, we had to climb over the mountains.  I think we hit 9,800 feet.

There was snow up in 'em hills.

When you come over the mountain, this is the beautiful view.
Hello, gorgeous!  Take me Make you my home!

Nice little park.  The parks there, its weird; they're clean!

Probably my favorite picture.  Might be your favorite, too.  Yeah, I'm pretty sure it is.

My second favorite pic.
I feel like there's a lot of tilting going on in this picture.
Makes me a little woozy, but I like it.

Quick photo shoot on the beach.  We're so happy to be together!

New dating profile picture.
Thats right ladies, he's available, and looking.

Me, oh, I'm fine.  Just carrying the weight of the world.
Nothing to worry about.

Proof of my ever expanding state count.  California, CHECK!

Finally, the last thing we saw when driving down the mountain, back to stink town lame vacation place Reno, was a yard full of bizarre constructed vehicles, including but not limited to, a Conestoga wagon, a one-seater tank, and old fire trucks like this one.

That Handsome, he's got quite a hold on me.  Makes me miss him at every turn.
I think he's spiking my cheerios.

Making the best of Not-Vegas,
