Working in Tahoe City California
September 1st – 3rd, 2008. I’ve been feeling the pressure to get something done for a few days now. Last week was mostly consumed by travel, so I’ve felt like I’ve done “nothing.” “Nothing” isn’t really nothing of course – I’ve found a way to stay on top of most things despite traveling – but it’s frustrating to work for only a few hours a day. Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday were full fledged work days. I couldn’t be happier.
In addition to finally working, Sara and I have also had a chance to spend some quality time with newlyweds Kim and Kevin. They entertained us, gave us some good tips for our own upcoming wedding, and gave Sara and I a chance to interact with other people. Not that we don’t like all the one-on-one time, but it’s nice to have a break.
Sara, Kevin, and Kim relaxing and having fun.
The house we’re staying at belongs to Kim and Kevin’s family, and it’s awesome. We’re super comfortable here. It’s huge, everything is nice, and there’s lots of food left over from the wedding. Lots of cheese especially. Very good – very good indeed.
The house we’re lucky enough to stay in for 2 weeks. It’s just outside of Tahoe City, CA.
Working in Tahoe City has been easy. Syd’s Bagel Shop is great – free wi-fi, great coffee, and bagel sandwiches. There’s a place called Gears and Grind that’s nice too – just make sure you don’t talk on your phone when you’re inside the place.
My impression of the Lake Tahoe area – it’s a lot like the Evergreen/Conifer area of Colorado (except for the big lake of course). It’s very dry here (just like CO), and there is a very mountain feel to everything.
In any case, we’re very happy here. This is nicer than our old home at 909 Logan for sure.
