Cross Country Ski fun, March 8-9

Perfect snow, clear skies, and mild temperatures set the stage for a great cross country ski weekend on March 8 and 9 at Tahoe Donner XC Ski Center. The roads were clear and uncrowded going up Saturday evening and back Monday afternoon. Bob and Norma took a Skate Skiing lesson on Sunday afternoon (whew! hard work.)


We stayed at Bob's condo at Northstar and had a relaxing and tasty spaghetti dinner with camaraderie and conversation on Sunday evening. Then on Monday back to Tahoe Donner for a beautiful X-C trip into the Euer Valley. Came back to the Tahoe Donner day lodge for a bowl of soup and some of Sandy's fresh fruit and berries. Then headed back to Benicia, mostly missing the rush hour traffic. Three hour drive at most. We are so lucky to be so close to Tahoe!
