4th of july in tahoe

For the Fourth of July long weekend this year, we joined my parents and Sophia in Tahoe. The incredible snow pack hasn't much melted and we got to have a second spring with snow fields, wild flowers and over flowing rivers and streams.

These pictures are from a hike we all took around Echo Lake and then gratefully were able to take the boat taxi back to where we started from. Sophia wasn't too sure about the boat taxi but by the time we were done, she'd forgotten all about the hike and jabbered on, and on, and on about the boat trip.

Tahoe as always is just beautiful.
