Lake Tahoe September 2007

Tom, Tina and I went to Lake Tahoe for the Tour de Tahoe - a 72 mile bike ride around the lake. Tom and Doug did absolutely GREAT - Doug in his youth - finished in an incredible time, 3:44 and Tom did TERRIFIC finishing under 5 hours. Lake Tahoe is a very beautiful place and I can see why Doug began his photography business (http://dougmiranda.com.) there and Tina wants to retire there. I just wish it was closer to southern California.



Tom hamming it up on mile marker 53 (his football number, year born, etc.) This is Emerald Bay where the above photos were shot.

Doug - the photographer - with a picture he took of himself.

Tina and me in all the beauty!!

Tom at the finish line ... Doug had been back for a while and refused to change back into his cycle gear for the picture!!

This beautiful hawk was right above our room and stayed there for quite some time.

Tina, Doug and me on the pier just a short distance from Tom's and my room.

The sunset from the pier.
