Tahoe - Winter 2011

I spend time in Lake Tahoe with friends or family most winters, summers & in the fall.  Today I am at West Shore with my friend Jill.  She loves to ski and although I once loved it too, now I would rather be cozy and warm by the fire, reading a book, sketching, taking photo's or having an Irish Coffee!  So while Jill is swooshing down the slopes at Alpine, I hang out in the lodge or on good days, out on the deck basking in the sunshine and people watching.  Today I had to stay indoors as it was both raining and snowing!  I pulled my camera manual out and played with the different settings on my new Sony A-55 while sipping a glass of Chardonnay......tough life, huh?
