Utah was hard to leave but Cali was calling – so we made our way across the great salt flats and the huge desert also know as Nevada. We decided to camp in the Lake Tahoe region – specifically at Donner Memorial State Park. We got over the creep factor of its historical ties to cannibalism and enjoyed the luscious Sierra Nevada surrounding. Enough that we were supposed to stay one night but made it into two.
Listening: Cannibal! The Musical soundtrack
Eating: flame-grilled veggies and Wild Cherries coffee
Watching: out for bears
Wanting: laundromat
Miles: 3300+












I remember seeing GIANT Redwoods in a National Geographic magazine when I was six. I knew someday I will visit them, I just haven’t got there yet. So COOL that you have.
Kayaking is more fun than having a canoe partner(right Ben!)And someday Kristin is gonna kill you for the constant upclose photos!
But we LOVE them ALL, thanks for sharing. I feel we were on you trip too (just without the traffic)xoxoxoxoxoxoxox
