We started our adventure in Las Vegas on Friday, visiting the Hoover Dam and also doing my first trip to a Casino.   I declined to gamble.  It’s all rigged against you anyway, and I didn’t feel like losing money.

Yesterday we drove up to Lake Tahoe (which is where I’m writing this from),   taking a scenic route through the Nevada desert and the Eastern Sierra Nevada mountains in California.   It was spectacular.

If you’d like to read about it, you can do so at my “Super Secret Personal Blog” where I’m documenting our trip (MUCH more detail there than here).  There ARE photos available on that site from the trip,  but you can also find them on my flickr photo set,  which will be updated with new pictures as time and bandwidth allow. 

Well, i’m off here and out to explore Lake Tahoe, before loading up the car and heading to San Francisco.
