Emerald Bay: photo by kim

Posted by: kimthanh

Tahoe is a very special place for me because I had the great opportunity to work for one of the State Parks, D.L. Bliss, on the West Shore of Tahoe, for five consecutive summers. I was a park aid and LOVED it. Besides, the outdoors is one of my ways of connecting with who I am, and with god, there was no better place for me than this area called the Lake of the Sky.

Emerald Bay, in particular, is very special to me because it is where Michael proposed to me 14 and a half years ago. Actually we were on another area of the bay called Eagle Falls. So, this June, we will have been married 14 years.

And so, Tahoe has become our place to play, camp and relax.

This day out on the ocean was so magnificent! The sky was cloudless, the air was warm, but cool enough when on the water.

Lots of photos were taken out on the catamaran, but this is one particular photo I liked.

I love this photo. This was taken on our way back to the cruise ship in Cabo. She is not the original local that I wanted to photograph, but we were in a hurry, I guess, when we passed by this really amazing, and apple doll-faced local. I was convinced by the others that we could get her photo on our way back to the ship, but as it turned out she wasn't at the port by the time we returned later that day. I was so disappointed but then this little local was walking passed us and I HAD to stop and get her photo.

I had to pay to take her photo, but she and the few she was in company with only wanted a dollar. So snap away I went and this is what I got. I just think she is adorable.

This was a fun day and knowing I got a great picture of the bridge just sweetened it even more.

Fort Point was closing for the day at this point and I wanted to be sure I got some good shots in before we drove away.
