Tahoe was gorgeous
, Autumn colors peeking out amoung the tall pine trees, snow piled upon the ground showing rainbows of shimmering color. The sun would peek out through billowy clouds floating in the bright blue sky with wisps of fog layers floating as if doing an orchestrated dance to usher in Mr. Winter. We were so blessed to have open roads both on the way there and the way back. In Sacramento it has been raining off and on all day yesterday and today so it was truly a special weekend in Lake Tahoe.
Brian's Christmas party was magical, my little black dress fit comfortably although I kept a lovely shawl that I purchased in Virginia City around my arms to conceal the inperfections I am wanting to improve upon. Light on my feet I danced some with my husband and then by myself because someone handed me a tea light candle and I took it onto the dance floor and let the spirit move me. I joked that this was Lisa "Light on her feet" as I twirled around the dance floor with the shawl flowing gently around my new figure.
I especially enjoyed our visit to Virginia City which took a steep hill to climb to visit this charming town of a time long ago. I met a man who graduated from my Highschool the year I was born and we had a very nice conversation. I think he may check out the face book alumni site and see if he feels like making connection for his upcoming 50th reunion in 2012. A lot of the boys of that era ended up killed in the Vietnam war and we thought about these young men and their families. Oh, how devastating war is and how thankful we are for their sacrifice to protect our freedom and country. We talked about how fortunate we were to live in a great Air Force community as we grew up. From innocent to turbulent times of the 60's and 70's it was a time we both shared experience in our lives. This casino/bar overlooked a vista site of the Sierra's with view of an old steepled church with a bell that strikes upon each hour echoing through the long road town. Leaving here we strolled the shops and walked upon the old wooden walkway. My husband and his buddies were sent by God to carry out a very special mission to reunite a Mother who hasn't seen her son in 10 years. He is now 19. I am not sure what to think except it is a very sad story.
I am so tired right now and don't know how well I can write about what happened by happenstance. Tomorrow they will deliver the note and bag of confections and candy to this boy and I will write about what I know and understand about this particular situation.
With a good nights sleep I hope to regenerate to my stronger self as I am feeling very exhausted. Sleep well friends. TOWANDA!!!!!!!!!!

Lisa, sounds like Tahoe was wonderful. I had a friend years ago that would go there every year. I hear it is gorgous. Especially this time of year. It also sounds like you thoroughly enjoyed the party. I am so glad you have this uplifted spirit. Dancing alone, wow, you have to be in 7th heaven with your new body now. You are doing so well. This site has been tremendously helpful, hasn't it? I cannot imagine NOT having it now. It has been the rod in my life supporting me toward a better and healthier life. Have a marvelous week Lisa and thanks for coming to my journal so much.
