To do so, we had to get through a number of obstacles:
- Dead car engine
- Rental car
- Getting to the rental car
Ugh. But--so wonderful to finally get to see it!
It seems like our last vacation for some time, now that Dawn begins her final push through to graduation this week. Took the 4:00 p.m. tour of the Vikingsholm house, then visited the museum and purchased a Vikingsholm booklet and DVD.
Lots of people enjoying Emerald Bay...stand up and sit-down kayakers, lots of boats, suntanning, picnics, tourists, hikers. Once again remarked how much I love the smell of dried pine needles.
Afterward, we returned to Cake Tahoe for a "Cupcake Split" (just in time, before they closed at 6:00 p.m.) and a growler of the Tahoe Mountain Brewing Company's Local Lager, which received a "Silver Medal 2013 California State Fair". I think I like the Sugar Pine Porter better, but it's a personal preference. We also popped into Cooking Gallery, where I purchased a Dharma "Beautiful Bend" 12mm borosilicate reusable straw and case...they didn't have a cleaner at the store so I purchased one via the Dharma web site.
Left Sacramento around 1:00 p.m.; returned home around 8:00 p.m.
