Trip to Tahoe












Bryan had a conference in Tahoe last weekend. He rode a train to Truckee on Wednesday and then took a bus to Squaw Peak Resort where the conference was being held. (This is actually the fourth year he's gone to this conference. Braxton, Carly and I went with him two years ago.) Anyhow, I got to go stay with him the following Friday. Jenn watched our kids, and I drove up and arrived in the afternoon. We took a drive and checked out all the nice cabins people own there. Then we went to dinner at this awesome restaurant. The food was fantastic. I love good food! Then we went to the Olympic Village where they had a Ben and Jerry's. We grabbed our ice cream and took it back to our hotel. By the way, Bryan ended up with an upgrade because they didn't have his room ready for him when he arrived, so our room was fabulous. It had a kitchen, living room with fireplace, the nicest bathroom I've ever seen in a hotel room and of course our bedroom. We put our ice cream on ice and stuck it in the fridge. Then we went hot tubbing! The hotel has two outdoor pools and three outdoor hot tubs. It was very chilly outside, but the hot tubs were so hot, we eventually jumped in the pool! After swimming, we went back to our room and ate our ice cream while watching Iron Man-good flick! The next day we took the scenic route back home and stopped at lots of cool trails and look out points. The scenery was amazing. Bryan and I like doing those kinds of things, taking drives walking trails, and learning some of the history of the area. Very interesting! It was a great time and so nice to spend time together without kids for a little bit. Thanks Jenn!
