Our Christmas Gift


 Once again, Kevin and I gave each other a little escape to the Sunnyside Lodge at Lake Tahoe for our Christmas gift. This year the weather was overcast and rainy -- but the sun did come out for a while.
 We drove to the top of Mount Rose stopping to look at Lake Tahoe from the Northeast overlook.


 From Mount Rose you can look down into the desert below and see Reno in the distance. It was gorgeous.
 Carson City and Virginia City are visible as well.

We poked around Truckee and had lunch at the Dragon Fly restaurant -- one of our all-time favorite restaurants. We bought some really great gadgets at the kitchen supply like a cookie dough scooper, hamburger patty maker, egg slicer and water bottle. A great little retreat for us.
