Have You Seen My Hat?


Lost the Tilley…or maybe Cooper ate it.  Anyway it’s gone and today we headed out to look for a replacement.  We didn’t think it would take ALL DAY, but it did.   Packed up camp and headed to Carson City thinking that finding a new hat would be easy…turned out it was not. 

Lake Tahoe was our ultimate destination, but we thought we’d find something in Carson City easier...less traffic and more parking.  Nope, two sporting good stores later and still no hat.  Cindi found 2 more sport stores in nearby Reno, NV so off we headed in that direction.  REI had one poor Tilley…too small.   Our second stop was Cabela…still no Tilley, but did find a substitute that will have to do for now.   

Traffic leaving Tahoe
Who’d have thought it would take us over a 100 miles and all day to get to the hotel in Lake Tahoe…still no Tilley hat.  The traffic leaving the Lake Tahoe area was impressive  though.  Glad we were heading in the other direction.

Gourmet dining
We celebrated our day by eating a Bonzi Burger at Izzy’s Burger Spa…along with a side of frings ( ½  fries and ½ onion rings).
