6/3/09 - Lake Tahoe, CA

We drove on scenic U.S. 89 and stopped at the Inspiration Point Vista overlooking Emerald Bay, part of Lake Tahoe. The only island in the lake is there. Then we went on a hike to Eagle Lake. This is one of the places David Neill and I camped at about 30 years ago. We had a picnic lunch (Hurricane Ike MRE’s) at Baldwin Beach on Lake Tahoe. Then we walked through the Tallac Historical site. It contained the rustic estates of three upper crust families who summered there during the late 1800’s and early 1900’s.
