I was just telling some friends that I always feel like I have to defend living in Reno. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love it here. I love it more and more with every passing year. It is just that I think the general perception of Reno isn't always so great. There are always the FAQs and their respective answers - No we don't work in a casino and in fact, I can't remember the last time I stepped foot into a casino. Yes, actually there is a lot to do that has nothing to do with gambling.
A definite perk of living in this neck-of-the-woods is the proximity to Tahoe and all that Tahoe has to offer. We got a message on Friday night that my niece, Lindsay and her husband, Arturo were going to be spending the weekend Snow Boarding at The Resort at Squaw. It took us about 45 minutes to get to the resort and what followed was a beautiful afternoon of food, live music, swimming and catching up with the Planells.
So for those of you in the area, check out the resorts at Tahoe. Even if you don't ski, there are a million and one things to do. The Squaw website is awesome and if you haven't taken the kids on the Gondola to high camp, make it a priority!
In Health,
Yo
