Truckee, CA

On our last day in Walla Walla, August 14, we realized that we had just two weeks until returning to Jackson. Yet, we still had the whole Northwest to explore. A year is not enough. What to do? Where to go? Family trumped adventure and we departed the next morning for Truckee. Six hundred miles. Grandma needed to see Luca.



Philip and I had our first overnight visitor. Luca spent two nights sleeping on the floor of our van, which was parked in the lot next to his apartment. Camping! Yes, he is still sleeping inside that bag. We enjoyed eating popcorn and watching the first Harry Potter movie. We promised to take Luca on the road trip next summer.



Mountain biking in Tahoe City.






Kayaking on Donner Lake. We also paddled the Truckee River.



Dinners out! Lots of good food in Truckee. Luca especially liked Christy Hill on Lake Tahoe in Tahoe City, after a swim in the lake.



Of course, no summer visit would be complete without a round of golf.



And arcade games.
