Home Base, Tahoe

We stayed in a small a-frame style ski house with a loft a short drive from the rest of the fam. We had great access to the forest and lots of running trails.



The golden rays of tri-tip beef being cooked on coals. It was delicious if I do say so myself.


We had our own private beach access. Rock only but still very nice.

The Boys in Pasadena Part 1

We arrived first in Pasadena for a brief stop with Ella, Kirk, Jarah and Hugo. Ama was also there, much to the boys delight.

It was great to meet little [big] Hugo for the first time. Here he is surprised we made it after all this time.


Elliot enjoyed feeding him wood chips.

Jarah and Elliot bonded over cheese sticks...

and gold fish...


... and discussing the in and outs of the new front garden path.

The 33rd Annual Squaw Mountain Run

Zoe bravely took on the Squaw Mountain Run on the morning of the meeting. A 5.8 kilometre running from the ski village at 1890m to 2500m. A tough run at altitude she came third in her age group.

Missing them

More pictures coming soon, but in the meantime I keep looking at this one.

On the plane

Ahhh, Elliot asleep and a glass of wine in hand.

NB - picture may not be at all representative of actual flight.
