South Lake Tahoe

     We left Vacaville this morning at about 7:00 a.m. and headed towards Lake Tahoe, South Lake Tahoe to be exact.  We made reservations at Zephyr Cove RV resort, www.zephyr cove.com 
We'll be here for the next 6 days basically just relaxing and doing some tourist stuff here at Lake Tahoe and that will include paying a visit to Harrah's and Harvey's casino's.  We stayed at Harrah's back in 1977 for the first time and where impressed by the place, as a matter of fact it was the first Hotel we stayed at that had a "mini bar" and all the luxury's they provided.  We saw Sammy Davis Jr. during that visit and just can't believe we waited so long to make it back, the place really hasn't changed all that much to be honest.
      By the way the motor home preformed just fine climbing the hills up to Lake Tahoe at 7382 feet, no noise, just cruised right along the way it supposed to.  We thank Charles "you can call me Tony" Anderson of Midway Truck repair for all he did to get us out of Vacaville, he squeezed us in and took great care of us and the motor home.  We have found so many folks like Tony in our many travels across the United States over the past 5 or 6 years, sure there were those few that could give a shit less but many more like Midway Truck Repair you can be sure of that.  Man do I love this country........you can have all your foreign countries and trips outside the United States, there is so much to see and do right here and good folks around every corner.
     Tomorrow we look into a cruise of the Lake or possibly the dinner cruise leaving from Zephyr Cove here where we're parked.  They have a couple of big paddle wheel vessels for day cruises and dinner cruises, and we also plan on getting Bev back out on the golf course too.
     Oh by the way..............the Arizona Cardinals are 2-0 and yes I know it's preseason but this is still good!
