Truckee, California

December 5th, 2014

         We arrived to Truckee, California yesterday afternoon! We spent the day having vantastic worked on, they don't make 16.5 tires anymore so it would've been $200 for one used tire in that size. We switched to 16 inch rims with larger tires for much less cost. We spent most of the day in Reno finding the correct size tires and rims between two different shops. Everything was finished about 245pm and we continued our journey west toward Truckee which was only about 45 minutes away.

       There was a cute studio apartment we looked at on Donner Lake and really like the place. It is furnished, shares a dock on the lake with a few other people on the property and is about 25 minutes to Alpine Meadows where Scott will work (which is a gorgeous drive along a creek and through forest).

         We ate at Moody's Restaurant in Truckee last night which was delicious. The town is very quaint with chocolatier stores, breakfast diners, gift shops, and several bars to choose from. There is a train and bus here which goes through the Tahoe area for transportation. We stayed at The Truckee Hotel and had a nice stay. We have about 15 minutes left before check out time so I have to head out. We are going to explore Lake Tahoe today and hopefully hear good news about the apartment so we can move in tonight!

         Happy to have arrived to our final destination...until we plan our next road trip :)

Love,

Heidi & Scott
