I am currently "down" in the big city (Free Republic's home base) after working for 55 consecutive days (630am to 10pm) "up" in the big mountains at a resort situated on an exquisite alpine lake, nestled high in the Sierra NF, surrounded on all sides by three designated wilderness areas. (Kaiser, John Muir, & Ansel Adams Wilderness Areas)
One of my favorite tasks in my official duties is to ferry weary hikers across a gorgeous lake, using a water taxi, saving the grateful backpackers 5 miles of hiking and delivering them to a resort that delivers wilderness hospitality to each of the back country users. To date, over 1,100 passengers have made the unique water journey, some coming from as far away as the US-MX border, starting their foot path 900 miles to the south.
As always... WOOT! WOOT! Good vibes and life is good!
Expanding on an already good thing - the dining car (offering accommodations for 72 MAGA warriors) in an enlarged "friendlier" view.
Well hello freepersup!
Nice to hear from you! I remember years ago when you posted a pic of you whisking people across that beautiful lake....is my memory correct? I seem to recall something like that.
We indeed need that new two-level dining car. Between the breakfast from lysie, high tea, and nightly desserts, the kitchen’s getting a little busy!
Hope you’re comfortable with a/c, swimming pool, or whatever you need to stay cool in the heat wave! God bless, and enjoy your time down in the big city (if that’s possible lol).
freepersup—we missed you, and wondered how you were doing!
thanks for the expanded view!
Your water taxi sounds interesting - is it a small boat?
