We spent mid-June in South Lake Tahoe - or as Bailey called it - Lake Taco. We had a great time, despite the snow. :-) Our first morning there included snow on the ground, but by afternoon it was all gone. Luckily the pool at the condo was heated.
Bailey loved the pool and ran back and forth between the pool and the hot tub whenever we were there. The pool was around 85 degrees, so it was just like stepping into bath water. I think if we could spend all day in the pool, Bailey would have been in heaven. Our room windows looked right at the pool, which just added to the excitement for the kids.
Obviously, Gretchie loved the pool too. She worked on her swimming and had a great time jumping into the pool.
The afternoon of the first day, we walked the short distance to the lake and played around for an hour or so. Gretchie and Bailey collected feathers, while Shelby practiced skipping rocks. Gotta love the bandana!
We took the girls over to a place for horseback riding one afternoon. The both look so cute up on those horses. And both decided they wanted ponies of their own. Ha ha!
After Shelby and Gretchen left for their ride, the place let Bailey get up on a horse and walk a little around the corral. She loved it!!! I was so glad because they didn't allow kids her age to ride, even with a parent, on the regular rides. Bailey is also convinced that she wants a pony.
The horseback riding place was home to the fattest squirrel I've ever seen. It would sit up on the porch by a shed. Bailey kept running up to try and catch it. It kept running away, but allowed her to get pretty close first. A little tricky thing!
We spent an afternoon on this touring boat, which took us across the lake and through Emerald Bay. Bailey liked the big paddle wheel on the back and would have been happy spending the whole time watching it. There was a little window in the bottom of the boat where in shallow water, you could see things cruising past.
On our way back home, we stopped off at Pyramid Lake, which is on an indian reservation. The water was so blue. Aaron fished for about 4 hours, while the girls played in the water. They built sand castles and threw rocks. Aaron is planning a trip next year in April or May to fish there for a few days. I guess 4 hours wasn't enough. :-)
Bailey got her pants wet when running through the small pool above, and before I could do anything about it, Bailey had taken her pants off. No one was around, so I let her run around half naked. She got her shirt wet eventually too.
