Strangers in the Night

Ok so it was just one, but an interesting one. Last night Nate and I were reading in bed and we heard some noises outside so he got up an checked. He peeked his head back in and said grab the camera, we have a visitor. I grabbed it and went out expecting to see a deer or something, but it was a HUGE black bear eating the wild berries that grow behind us. The neighbors to the left of us decided to feed it their leftover steaks from dinner. Apparently they didn't grasp the concept of the owner staying "DO NOT FEED THE BEARS!" or read the signs that are posted all over. We will see if our visitor returns tonight for more or not. I am just glad that we are about 15 ft up from the ground.

There is still quite a bit of snow still up here so Nate and I enjoyed a little snowball fight.

This past week we have explored a few different places along Lake Tahoe. We walked through a bunch of shops and just enjoyed the beautiful weather and lake.Nate found a new place for us to live. He said it would be fun to camp out all summer and pretend that we are Indians and live here. I'm sure the rent would be cheap.

Nate found a new car today.

Nate and I have had fun finding random signs around as we explore. Here are a few. The bottom one was one that we drove past and both just started cracking up. I don't know why we find somethings so funny and there are more to come, I just haven't got pics of them yet.




This is us when we went down to the lake for a little while. This doesn't show how blue and clear the water was. I will have to work on getting a better pic of that.

We found this amusing. We where just cruising down the mountain road when we hit 99.9 miles per gallon. Too bad we can't get this all the time seeing how gas is so much more expensive out here.

WE'RE HERE.........!

Or at least I am. Nate left for CA on Sat for one last project for the Space Dynamics Lab, so yes that meant that I had to drive out here by myself. After 9 1/2 hours of driving from Logan to here I was ready to be done. Nate will be here on Wed or Thurs. It is soooo beautiful here and I can't wait to explore everything. Here are a few pics of the view for now until we find a more permanent place to stay starting in June.


This was my view starting out Sunday morning at 5:30 a.m


There were quite a few deer and other animals that decided to cross the road on the way. At one point I was stopped for almost 5 min waiting for these deer to make up their minds of what and where they wanted to go.

It was exciting to see this sign. I was on this two lane highway FOREVER in the middle of nowhere

This is the view of Lake Tahoe from our front window. I can't wait to go down there and see everything.

This is the view from the back.


To catch up on a few things that happened this past week. Nate and I met up with Morgan and Bethany for lunch in Brigham City for one last visit before we left. I can't believe that next time I see her she will be a mommy and have a little girl. Nate and I are so excited for them.

Nate's old roommate Justin and our friend Brittany got married last weekend in Salt Lake. Congrats to them!

I am so addicted to photo editing and now taking pics. This is one of Nate and I that I have been playing around with.


This is the blanket that I made for their wedding. It was last one I had to get done before we moved,and I was so stressed to try and get it done on time.
