There Is Finally Snow in Tahoe

As most of you who know me know, my first year in Tahoe we got attacked by what I like to call the snow monster. It felt like every day we got another foot of snow, and I was barreling my Oldsmobile down the road in the hopes of making it to town. 

This year, it has been the opposite. I was starting to wonder if we were going to get any at all. And then, just the other day, it snowed, and boy is everyone here happy to see it. Never have I lived in a place so dependent on Mother Nature. Without snow, a quarter of the population is out of work. Guests at the resort vacationing in Tahoe get mad at me because there is no snow. (I have literally had to apologize to a fifty year old man, because he was so rattled and could not understand why I could not provide him a white snowy wonderland).

But now its here and everyone is rejoicing! Tonight we took our traditional after work walk around the beach and enjoyed the new snowy atmosphere.
