Yes, Phil, we travel to Norden California often to see Snow and just
Phil the cool breezes. We take in coffee with artificial sweetener, so
no Sugar Bowl for this guy. We Donner Ski apparel for crusing to the
Ranch. Then we Royal-ly Gorge at the buffets at the nearby casinos.
Except there are so many smokers there that we sometimes just can't
Bear it and have to Go Lodge a complaint. Go figure.

On a Clair day, you can see a Lodge portion of the lake. On the warmer
days, you can hear the raindrops Tappan on the Lodge roof.
Nature-ally, Friends are in Heidelmann when you get in trouble around
here.
