Gotta Love the Lake Tahoe Weather
The local classic quote for Lake Tahoe weather is, “If you don’t like the weather, just wait a few minutes.” Okay, minutes might be a slight exaggeration, but only slight. Four days ago, we took the top down on the VW to enjoy summer weather at its finest. Off to the beach to soak up the rays, air up the bike tires, ventures to the local golf courses - all in full swing. Lake Tahoe residents were grinning from ear to ear.
However, you can bet there were jackets and scarfs stowed away in trunks and bags. Those of us that have called Lake Tahoe home for a few years no better. And sure enough, we awoke to snow this morning. YES SNOW! Now, I for one was somewhat delighted as I had been experiencing pangs of envy toward parents of the area’s current Little League baseball teams. How many games did we sit through huddled under down blankets and toting propane heaters to the bleachers? After all, this is how we locals historically prepare for our roles as Little League parents. Yet, this 2008 season saw Lake Tahoe Little League parents boasting sun burns. That’s just not right!
Alas, justice is here and as I watch over the office this Memorial Day weekend, I will remind my office peers to pack their layers of clothing and have a great time. Yes, the Boys of Summer are back.
