Outdoor Wednesdays-My Favorite Lake


Thanks again to our hostess Susan at A Southern Daydreamer, make sure you check out every one's outdoor posts this week. I always enjoy seeing what everyone shares! I am posting pictures this week from my favorite lake in California.


I love Lake Tahoe, California and look forward to going with my family every year for rest, relaxation and just to enjoy the beautiful scenery. We go boating, hiking and golfing and no matter where you look you can see the beauty in nature from our Creator.

The Rubicon Trail is an easy trail and we also enjoy hiking up to the falls.

Have a wonderful Outdoor Wednesday!

  13. Wonderful photos - I love Lake Tahoe! It's nice to see it so clear and beautiful. When we were there last year those horrible fires were burning and the air was just awful. This is the true beauty!

  14. Hi Sonia! I missed your post on Wednesday. Are you at Lake Tahoe now or are those pictures from another trip? It looks beautiful!

    Was Canton fun? Any good treasures? Some of my friends are dying to go this summer but I know all too well that it will be blazing hot down there!

  15. Hi Sonia...

    I just wanted to stop by to say thank you for coming over and leaving me the very sweetest note on my water tablescape! Girl, you just made my day...I sure do appreciate it!!! You're so sweet!!!

    Wow...Lake Tahoe is gorgeous! What a beautiful place to vacation at...I loved all of your photos!!! Can you believe that old stone building with the sod and grass growing on top of it...that's just awesome! Loved seeing the beautiful waterfalls too...ohhh, God did good when He created Lake Tahoe! Hehe! It looks like you had a marvelous time...I'm so happy for you!!!

    Also, I looked down through your red maple post too! I think that the red maple is my favorite tree as well! Of course, red is one of my favorite colors sooooo...hehe! I keep telling my honey that I want one...maybe next year! All of your little red maples look like they're doing really well! I wonder if it grows fairly fast...do you know? Just curious!

    Well Darlin'...thank you so much again for your visit! Have a great weekend!
