We rent a large ski cabin owed by a school friend of mines family. It is a great cabin near Tahoe City that holds 10 people. A few people cancelled last minute so we ended up with only 6 up at the cabin. 4 out of the 6 are French so I had a good time trying out bad French and trying to understand them!<\/p>\n<p>Scott was cross country skiing so he kindly took Draeger the dog out for some trail walks. I tried to stay up with the French on the slopes. My skiing is functional and not stylish at all &#8211; oh well for a person that goes once a year. I\u00c2\u00a0stuck with them even on the double diamond black which I almost bailed on and started the long walk back on the catwalk then decided I was being old and did it anyways. Allez op was the call on the slopes all weekend.<\/p>\n<p>The snow was amazing I have not ever seen it that deep in the\u00c2\u00a0last 8\u00c2\u00a0years I have been going up there. It was spring skiing conditions &#8211; very warm sun but not slushy snow. We skied Homewood on Saturday with the beautiful views of the lake and Alpine on Sunday where we had a picnic at the top of the mountain. We made our skis into lounge chairs! A very enjoyable weekend.<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"colorbox-100\"  loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"1\" width=\"249\" src=\"http:\/\/www.racingyachtmanagement.com\/blog\/albums\/pictures\/picnic.jpg\" height=\"448\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">Have a good week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This last weekend a group of us went on our annual ski trip to Tahoe which is always the 2nd weekend of February.
