More about today (Saturday) later, please check back for pictures of our drive around Lake Tahoe.
But, if you think you saw our pictures of Great Basin National Park we posted early Saturday you need to look back to the (Day 17) post. We had some problems with it and did not get it corrected and completed until late Friday night. Great Basin was "awesome". You got to see it.

The posts we make to the Blog are in the order of most recent first. If you follow every day or so you will see each new post as we publish it. If you catch up once a week you may have to click on the "Blog Archive" below to find a date to start. Just scrolling down from the opening page will only go back a few days or so.

Day 17
Finally, here is the completed update of pictures from Great Basin National Park. We had them all edited, and posted once then accidentally deleted the entire thing.
Right now we are in Truckee, CA camping at an RV park. Cell service, internet connection, and Crown Royal. Life is Good! Got a lot of "stuff" done today (including this blog post) and everything is ready for Yosemite on Sunday. Now we can drive around Truckee and Lake Tahoe tomorrow - a full day's trip.
