Tahoe 4th of July


We spent the long weekend in lake Tahoe. It was our first time there. It was a very relaxing family weekend. We spent time swimming at the pool and fishing in the lake. We ate at home most nights. There was a grill there and I was excited to use it. We also went on a nature walk that actually accomodates strollers, which was key. It had a even had a cool feature which was to take you down below a stream outfitted with a glass panel so that you can see all the fish and plantlife. Gabby loved it.


We also went treasure hunting. There are websites where you can get the GPS coordinates of treasure stashes hidden in your neighborhood. It's a sport custom-designed for families with young kids. You bring a small toy with you and then swap it for one in the treasure chest. The kids really love it, and it's nice for the adults to get out into nature every now and then too. Here are a few pictures of us unearthing a treasure chest...
