ATV Adventures in Lake Tahoe

This last weekend was supposed to be spent going to the Reno Air Races, but tragedy hit there and it was cancelled.  Instead of spending our days at the air races we got to spend it with family and getting to see all the beauty Tahoe has to offer.  This was Brandon's first time riding since his last ATV accident a couple years back.  He decided to spin some doghnuts and it ended poorly; a broken collar bone and a surgery to accompany that :(.  This trip involved no trip to the emergency room but some great views of the lake and good times with family. 

Not quite our first date, but Brandon and I got to ride up a trail to Quail Lake just the two of us.
