I'd noticed the water's clarity before I read your comment- what a lovely spot to sit and dangle my toes!

This is beautiful! I'm from tahoe and seeing pictures like these make me wonder why I ever leave. Was this taken on the North Shore? I know I've seen that dock house somewhere...

Greeat shot!!! love it!

Thanks for liking this shot. And, as one from the Tahoe area, you would know well already the great beauty of the place. You're right, this was taken from the north shore. I can't tell you much more than that and the fact that I was in Tahoe City (hope I have that right) and it was this past June, 06. Again, thanks.

Well...I'm guessing that the Washington that is your home (and was mine for decades) is the beautiful one in the Pacific Northwest. So you probably don't need to fly to Reno and drive to Lake Tahoe to see scenes like this one. I remember the highway (is it #20) that runs east through the northern Cascades as one of the most fabulous places for landscapes and water scapes in the world. Take good care of the place 'til I get back.

Washington is home, and I adore this place

I've always ended up coming back if I move, nothing else ever feels quite right

We still own some acres in the Walla Walla Valley, which I also like a lot. Perhaps we'll end up there. Meanwhile, we are sojourning in an overpopulated desert!

I'd recommend the place. There's no shortage of beauty, though there may be a longage of people at times.

I recommend Lake Tahoe for vacation; and, if you go there, you'll find deviations and probably some deviants all around. (And thanks!)

Thanks, and also for the . The lake amazingly blue, and this, I'm told because of its depth and the clarity of the water.
