Nestled about 30 miles north of South Lake Tahoe, and 15 miles south of Interstate 80 at Truckee, is Tahoe City. Not a whole lot here except several ski resorts, an Albertsons, Safeway, and a Baskin-Robbin, which is important when the temperatures are below freezing.

And yes, I nearly died hobbling across this three-lane road.	Despite all the snow, it seems it's still quite vital to have a well-trained and active fire department.	Snow, snow everywhere, so let's all take a sleddin'...
You would not believe how hard it is to build a snowman with just my bare wings. But I managed.	See? Now you know why the snow can sustain itself. It's freakin' cold (that's -4°C).
