Nevada Beach Campground - Lake Tahoe

On Sunday May 7th, we woke up to a couple of inches of snow and the realization that it was time to move on. We left Silver Lake Resort and headed for Lake Tahoe. We stayed at Nevada Beach Campground, which is located on the Nevada side of the lake two miles east of the stateline.  It seems to have this "dual citizenship" thing happening, in that it is physically located in Nevada, but it has an address of either Zephyr Cove or South Lake Tahoe, (depending on where you look) California... but I digress...
Serendipity was with us, and Nevada Beach Campground happened to open two weeks earlier than scheduled. This meant there were only a handful of other campers in this beautiful campground, and we could almost choose any spot we wanted.

Look carefully and you can see Heavenly Ski Resort is in the background
We got a great, spacious spot just steps from the lake and a stream that ran thru the campground.
It was hard to believe our luck; here we were, the weather was perfect, and we had a Lake Tahoe beach front view almost completely to ourselves.

You may notice that both animals in this picture are a little wet; that's because the two-legged one was doing a better job RETRIEVING than four-legged fur ball.
I think the mutt looked at me and thought, "Look buster, the free food and the drive is nice and all, but if you throw that thing into the COLD water one more time, I'm not gonna get it!"

Two of our boys are grown and out of the home, but we still got this willful teenager with us. Labrador - yes... but RETRIEVER my "[EXPLETIVE DELETED]!"
