Always nice to wake and read. Jim combines history, science, family, to paint the beauty of the big water. I’m with Patricia.

Missed out the Godfather movie Tahoe scene.

I’ve enamored with the Lake too and skiing at Heaven Valley and looking down at the lake in winter time . It’s where a learned to ski. I wrote a couple Tahoe stories,

One is about 4 teenagers sleeping in a Studebaker, under the snow covered eve of the Olympics skating rink, a year after the Olympics were held and 2 fifths of whisky to keep warm.

Then the California Highway Patrol officer stopped by.

It’s called Moonlight Ranch.

Sorry, please excuse the cheap story ad plug.
