Got back from a wedding in Tahoe. Beautiful area. I didn’t know that it was at such a high altitude (never been there before). I didn’t really notice it until I went for a (very cold) swim in the lake and noticed two things that I have not experienced before: 1. I could not go under water more than say, 8 feet without my inner ear *really* hurting. No idea if that was altitude related or not, but it was odd. 2. I could not swim very far under water on a single breath. Anyhow, we had a really good time. Stayed at a very nice find in historic Truckee, CA: River Street Inn. The owners/innkeepers were extremely friendly, and everything about the place was just perfect, really. We had to fly into/out of Reno, NV to get to Tahoe. What a sinkhole. Later…
