Last weekend, Tina's good friends Brian and Jeffrey invited Tina and me, and two other friends, up to their cabin in Tahoe. Technically it's in Truckee, and Tahoe is actually short for Tahoe Lake (not that I saw a lake)... I'm getting side-tracked... the point is this; when you say Tahoe - depending on the time of year - people either think "hiking!" or "skiing!"
It's the right time of year for skiing. :)
