It's another one of those convertible days - but we're heading up to the High Sierra snow.
sandwich stop right off hwy 88
Next morning (Saturday), we load up a couple of sleds and head over to Nevada.

Later, Eithne and Lukas are playing hide-and-seek at Hanna's bedroom in South Lake Tahoe
-Now, where did he go...?
Eithne patiently waiting while we cook dinner.
Lukas
[Mariel, Eithne, Javier, Audrey, Mark, Chuck, Lukas, Hanna]
Grilled tri-tip with Rice-a-Roni and sauce Bearnaise, with a bottle of yummy Spanish Rioja and a salad.
A special dessert - vanilla ice cream with Cling Peaches in syrup, and 25 year old Italian vinegar!
[Very tasty, I just about forgot to take a photo of this]
Star-gazing from the hot jacuzzi, we spotted several "falling" stars.
The next morning, the weather changes - now snowing sideways.
We set out by noon and take aim on the Bay Area.
Italian lunch stop in Davis. Eithne is playing by the fountain in the background...
