We woke up to crisp, cool, damp Tahoe air. Tiffany thought it would be the perfect time to go for a morning jog. As she walked out onto the balcony she saw a bear right across the street eating our neighbors' garbage. We watched it from the safety of our rental for quite some time. The kids thought it was wildly exciting, even after he escaped back up the mountain. Needless to say, Tiff decided not to go running. And it was a good thing too, because a short while later after breakfast and games another smaller bear started digging in the next neighbor's house.
After some time of bear watching we got dressed and packed sandwiches to hit Zephyr's Cove. It was a little drizzly, but that didn't stop us from building sandcastles, swimming in the clear lake, and playing a game of family wiffle ball. Afterwards, some of us went shopping and others headed back to the house to swim.
The best part of the day was visiting with the Arhets at their family reunion. They are staying at a beautiful mansion of a home just a few blocks away. We played, caught up on life, and made some introductions. After hugs and kisses good-bye we headed for dinner and ice cream.
The only thing that could have made the rainy day perfect was a little more time in a cozy bed (minus wiggly flailing sleeping child-sized bodies) and a good book.
It was another great day.
