The fires in Butte County made the air in the Bay Area very unhealthy and confined all kids (and adults) indoors. When we realized that the smoke might stick around for weeks, we decided to make a spontaneous trip to the hills and fresher air. Auggie's friends' parents loved the idea, too, and Maya's family invited us to their house in Tahoe. So on Saturday morning, three families, each with 3-4 year olds and 9month-19month olds set out on the road. Along the way, we found a hidden treasure, a little area off of I-80 called Rainbow, where we explored large boulders and rock formations and even got to see puddles frozen in ice.
The Tahoe trip was as expected. A wonderful escape into good air, with great folks and happy kids. Pretty much no one slept - babies and toddlers are not much for spontaneous changes of sleeping locations, but we still had a wonderful time.
