Angie's 1st Snowboarding Experience!

Al and I decided to get up early on Saturday and head up to Tahoe for the day. Since I knew I wouldn't be able to snowboard 2 days in a row:) We got on the road around 6:10am and got to Alpine Meadows around 8:45, not a bad drive. Below are a few pictures from our drive. We drove to Donner Summitt, elevation 7239, and below is a picture of Donner Lake, as you can see we are above the clouds covering the lake!

Here we are again driving into the clouds.

We finally got my rentals and our lift tickets and were set to hit the first run. I expected to fall alot, so I was ready:)

Al and I had a wonderful day, the weather warmed up to about 50 degrees, we were actually hot a few times. I was doing pretty good, but then after lunch I took one last spill that did me in, luckily I didn't break anything, just some bruising:) So while I returned my board and boots, Al went on a tougher run since I was not getting off the green runs:)

This picture is of the moutain while I enjoyed the weather and Al enjoyed a tougher run! We are so lucky to be this close to Tahoe and will be going again when we can!
