We do not need an excuse to drive up to the mountains. If we have a free day or even an afternoon, we are off! On this day the sky was so beautiful!! I LOVE clouds. This field of wildflowers was amazing.
Whenever we can,we bring the “boys”. Buster and Pookie. It’s a his-hers kind of thing. Buster is my doggie and Pookie is all hubby! Here is my mountain doggie posing on high. Don’t worry. I never take his leash off. I could not bear it if he ran off and got lost. So, I simply erased his leash in photo shop. 🙂 
There is a cool little place that we both love to come to. It’s called the Hope Valley Cafe & Market. There have the BEST chocolate chip cookies on the planet.
We drove to a cool waterfall at Lake Tahoe. The water is running low, it’s fall and we are in a drought. But, there IS still water and it MUST be photographed! Hubby and I were both taking a zillion photos of this waterfall when another photographer showed up and pointed out this awesome rainbow. We were so busy looking at the waterfall, we might have missed it!! And, while we were watching, another rainbow showed up! TWO rainbows. And, they both stayed for a long time. These photos were taken with my Iphone. It’s hard to see the second rainbow from my phone pic.
Here in my shot from my Canon, you can see the second rainbow. Isn’t it pretty?
We stopped at our favorite restaurant in Tahoe, Passaretti’s, and I took this phone pic of the beautiful sunset. Perfect ending to a perfect day!
