Skiing: 1 , Newlyweds: 0

Yesterday was our first skiing adventure at the Homewood Ski Resort. I think we overestimated our skiing ability, because we stuck mostly to the few greens available except the really steep black that we accidentally went down (oops)! It wasn't marked, and once we got to the bottom we then had to cross country ski back to the lift. It took at least 30 minutes and wore us out! However, because it was snowing or raining all day so we pretty much had the slopes to ourselves!



Today we decided to go driving instead of skiing again. Luckily we had a planned free day, so we used it today to head towards South Lake Tahoe just so we could get a better view of the mountains and the lake. We stopped at Sugar Pine Point State Park. Not all of the park roads had been cleared so we had to tromp through the foot deep snow to get down to the beach, but it was worth it for the beautiful view (and to watch Ben make a snow angel). Perhaps we'll try skiing again in South Lake Tahoe.
