Laurie came to visit for a mini reunion of just the siblings for a few days in the winter of 2009 took a scenic drive around Tahoe stopping off here at one point to frolic relax and renew ourselves. Purported location where the author Mark Twain had on accident burned down the forest . His book Roughing it Twain gives an account as he watches from his boat the campfire lites nearby brush and the whole forest is consumed hill by hill. By and By afterall he is a writer and has been know to stretch and embellish a story . I know nothing more of it than what is written by him. And what all my friends repeat of it as if it were gospel. I am unkconvinced and suspicious since would there not have been some other official record if not the Carson City newspaper or Virginia City . Since i would expect Twain would have had to answer for it. After All in this time period the Gold and Silver mines of Virginia City needed this precious and close by resource for the miles of tunnel supports . I think it is just another tall tale . Unless any other independent record can be produced i will stand skeptical
South Lake Tahoe; |-| A beautiful scenic adventure in (4K) (Eagle Falls)
Thumbs Up - if you like it. This is a short video summary of our South Lake Tahoe adventure. We had an very enjoyable time, we got there on the 3rd week of May and it was unseasonably cold but it was nice and comfortable, especially that we were coming from South Texas which was already getting to be too hot. The views are amazing and one of my favorite top list for natural beauty and great scenic location. The restaurant view was from the Forest restaurant in Caesar Harrah's Lake Tahoe hotel on the 20th floor. The views were fantastic and breathtaking.
