Is anyone out there?
Does anyone read this blog?
Hello?
Blogger World, I have returned from my two week sabbatical. I'm happy to report I had a fantastic time skiing at Lake Tahoe. The skiing was pretty good, food was great, and the company was wonderful.
The ski adventure started out as an adventure, which is why I'm naming this post The Ski Adventure. You see, when I announced this trip I might have left out a few minor details. For instance....
Minor Detail #1-Canada Travis invited me on the trip. You might remember Canada Travis? He lives in Canada and I went for a visit last month?
Minor Detail #2-Nine of Canada Travis's friends were on the trip as well. I did not know the nine other people.
When I accepted the invitation to go skiing, minor detail #2 was just a minor detail. It did not phase me that going on vacation with total strangers was weird. I thought it would be fun; an adventure. No big deal. However the day I was flying to Tahoe, Minor Detail #2 became a major detail. I mean who in their right mind books a vacation with strangers, total strangers? Sure I facebook'd stalked each of them, but I didn't know them. What if they were weird?
Thankfully the nine strangers turned out to be pretty cool. Not one made me feel out of place. Everyone was very welcoming and kind. The nine strangers were pretty fun to have as vacation partners and I think we all had a good time. I guess it is pretty hard to have a bad time when this is your playground...
Ok, so maybe this picture doesn't do justice, but just trust me when I say Lake Tahoe is beautiful!!! If you haven't been, I highly recommend it for your skiing or lake adventures. You will not be disappointed.

I'm waiting for a picture of the lake!!! Or are the slopes not close to it?
Sounds like it was a fun time - I can imagine what you were going through on the airplane there, though!
OH my.....you are braver then I would be. But it sounds like it all worked out. (You, Robin, and I are like blog comment buddies!)
I think we were all wondering what happened to you! Glad to hear you had a wonderful time. Lake Tahoe is beautiful any time of year.
You are so adventuresome! Love it! Looks like a great time.
Glad you home safe. I was worried. I'm getting too old for this.
Also, do you ever have to work? :)
I LOVE Tahoe! Have been there during the winter and the summer. Simply awesome.
I'm glad you had a great time.
vacationing with strangers is interesting. yet I sign us up to go set up Girl Scout camp every year and that's almost the same thing. Although all Girl Scouts are sisters and treat you like family...picking on you as such. ;o)
Robin- Sadly I did not take any pictures. Hopefully some will show up on facebook.
Oh I went on a random trip like this years ago to Vegas, and it was so much fun. I'd love to visit Lake Tahoe and ski...glad you had fun!
