M.S. Dixie II

We just got back from a great vacation in Lake Tahoe. One of the things we did was a dinner cruise on the lake and it was fabulous. Here is the boat, the M.S. Dixie II, modeled after an old-fashioned paddle boat.
We also had a wedding party on board for their reception.
Here you can see the hotels and casinos on the Nevada side of the lake.


There were so many awesome landscape pictures to take, here are just a few.

This is a "cottage" a really wealthy eccentric lady built right on the lake. It is humongous and gorgeous.

This is a small island in the lake in a part called Emerald Bay for the deep green water color.
If you look close you can see a small house on the top of the island. The rich lady had that built to as her tea house. Anyway the cruise was a great way to see Lake Tahoe, we really enjoyed it. I've decided Lake Tahoe reminds me a lot of the Uinta Mountains and Bear Lake put together.
