good ski, the snow was cold and the girls were friendly

 I spent the month of July 1959 at Squaw Valley, courtesy of the US Army. Our battalion was charged with installing communications at the ski jumps, prior to the 1960 Squaw Valley Winter Olympics. Needless to say, we had weekends off and Tahoe was the destination. At that time development was scarce around the lake, and it was very beautiful, the water was cold and the girls were friendly. We had a good time. Haven't seen it since.

My best memories are of my formative years in the Tahoe Basin. This was from 1952 to 1961. Things changed after the 1960 Winter Olympics.
 
I LOVE LAKE TAHOE 💗
