Tahoe

We just got back from a short family vacation to Tahoe to celebrate the hopeful end of fire season!  Saying Jackson loved Tahoe would be the understatement of the week.  He loved it!  We had a great time, beach (although definitely not swimming weather), biking, and walking all around.





We couldn't resist the midweek deal.  $150 for 2 nights, $30 at The Beacon, 4 breakfasts, and complementary champagne and glasses.  It's almost like they were giving the rooms away!  And right on the beach too, so awesome.











One of the greatest parts of the trip was getting to see the Kokanee Salmon annual upstream swim.  Every year the fish return to their stream of origin to mate, spawn, and die.  I didn't believe Donnie at first when he said all they were doing was swimming upstream to die, but yup, he is always right.



This was just one view of the salmon.  I would think there was tens of thousands of them since this was just one of many spots in the creek this dense of salmon.



Don't Rum Runners look weird out of their normal plastic cups?
