Day 33 - Truckee to South Lake Tahoe

50 miles - 2997 up

Our good friend, Richard Drace, drove up from Grass Valley to ride with us part of the day.

It turned into a "ride the trail" day, a refreshing change of pace after days on the highway! We rode from Tammie's neighborhood on a beautiful trail that follows the Truckee River, winds its way through the trees and had interpretive signs along the way.

I've never seen one of these signs before!

Later, we picked up another trail that we followed from Squaw Valley all the way to   Sugar Pine Point State Park.

He joined us for one of our gourmet roadside lunches... PB&J rolled up in a tortilla - it's OK to share our recipe...

Then, Rose and Charley wanted a better view of Lake Tahoe...

We got back on the trail / road to South Lake Tahoe to visit our friends, Leilani and Mike. Of course, we had to stop by Inspiration Point to show Emerald Bay to the Bears.

Here's a better view for you!

We finally made our way to Mike and Leilani's in the late afternoon and enjoyed a warm welcome, delicious dinner, shower and soft bed!
