11 Hours in Auburn. Tahoe, Ho!
Tahoe City, CA - Sat, 23 Jun 2018, 11:30am.
I've noted before that one of the main positives of Friday Night Halfway is that we can sleep in a bit in the morning instead of getting up at 6am and rushing out of the house for a 4-5 hour drive. Thus we slept in 'til a more civilized hour of about 7:30 today and took it easy rather than rushing. For me, that included a dip in the hotel's hot tub to loosen muscles in my shoulder knotted up from sleeping poorly on the hotel's mattress.
Before leaving Auburn we stopped for brunch at a bugers-and-ice-cream stand. Yes, they were serving burgers and ice cream at 9:30am! We just got the burgers, though, no ice cream. (We figured we could stop for ice cream later in the day, when the heat would help us appreciate it more.)
