Steve and Kay in Lake Tahoe
ByWe had a great time in Tahoe! The R&R was much needed! We stayed in South Lake Tahoe at the Blue Lake Inn…very nice! Our “reason” for going was to run the Lake Tahoe Half-Marathon. We ran it last year and wanted to return for this year’s. We’ll probably make it an annual trip! Besides the run, we did a lot of sightseeing. If you get the chance to go, be sure to take the short hike down to Emerald Bay. We think it’s the most beautiful place on earth! Perfect place…perfect weather…perfect vacation!
“Pretty as a Picture” … Here’s a shot of Emerald Bay from the road above.
WOW!…They don’t grow ‘em like this in Oklahoma!
This Redwood tree is on the beach of Emerald Bay.
What a view!

We took the tram to near the top of the mountain and then hiked to here.
Whew! The hike down to Emerald Bay wore me out!
10 Minutes before start time…13.1 miles to the finish line!…with just a few
“HILLS” in the way…hehe..
After the race….the COLD water felt good after 13 miles!
My Race Bib and Finishers Medal…pretty cool!
