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.

Looks like you guys are having an exciting time! I wish Tyler and I could get away for the Summer. Good luck with the job hunting!

Looks like you guys are having fun over there! That's crazy about the bear! I can't believe people are feeding them though. They're crazy.
