End of summer with no real trips so we are gonna go up to NC to
Deep
Creek near Boone for some whitewater tubing. Camper is still about
two weeks from completion so will be using the tent (this is tent
#4
and is almost worn out).
My wife is taking me to California and I hear the water in Tahoe is
pretty cold. I don't plan on jumping in anyway.
60 degrees at the surface yer round.
Nope I am not sticking a toe in that.
I'm an 80 and over guy, we like 85.
Take a cruise on the Tahoe Queen or the other paddlewheeler. Nice
cruise of
the lake, and stops at Vikingsholm at Emerald
Bay.http://www.parks.ca.gov/?page_id=506
We boat there once in a while.
Notnow: Thanks for the tip, I dunno how much time we will have. It
is a 10 hr drive from here.
Now I gotta decide, rush camper to completion tonite or go with the
tent. We have heard there are problem bears at Deep Creek. Been
there, done that, proved I can sit in my tent or in my sleeping bag
scared to death while they tear up my stuff next to me. Being older
gives me the right to be a wimp and want to be in a hard sided
camper. Have not put camper onto truck yet and I anticipate some
fitting problems, worth rushing or not for leaving tomorrow morning.

Be a man. Sleep in the tent. Take some righties here with you, and tie
them to trees to placate and feed the bears. A win-win situation.

Do you think any bear could stand the odour of a Justhate, a DK or any of
the other Dope lifers?
After all, they're used to honey & berries.



A quick run through the car wash, followed by a spray-down with
something that smells good...
