Wilkin Family Reunion, Day 3.
I'll confess, I am not a 'beach person'. What's the point? Pick a spot between strangers, stake out some territory with a beach towel and lay down in the hot sun. Wait a little while and get skin cancer.
Many in the family were headed for Pope Beach on the shore of Lake Tahoe. It is a fun family and a delight to get to know them more, so personal preferences be damned. This pasty white boy loaded up with sun screen [Lake Tahoe elevation 6,248'] and joined the party. It was a great day at the beach.
There were interesting people to whom I am some how kin to them. The water was cool and refreshing. I swam out into the lake. Norman brough a sea kayak, so Sue and I went for a paddle along the shore together. The water felt so good, I took a second swim into the lake. This was the best beach day.
