Solstice= Summer. Here we are-summer 2014. Green grass, wild flowers, bees, bears, coyotes, mountain lions. Lest we forget: jet skis, ski boats with skiers attached, bikes on the highways, beaches packed, restaurants busy, campers, camp grounds full, hikers on the trails, sun burn. Tour boats, party boats, ferry boats, kayaks, inflatables. Oh, and joggers a plenty.
Next up 4th of July.
Drones over Lake Tahoe
Yes, at various locations. The Tahoe Environmental Research Center(TERC) at Sierra Nevada College is producing a new film in 3-D to look at organisms within the lake environment. Steve Andersen of Omnidual Media is managing filming and post production of the film. It is being financed by National Science Foundation and developed in partnership with UC Davis, UC Berkeley Lawrence Hall of Science, ECHO Lake Aquarium Ctr, and Audience Viewpoints Consulting. The film, " Let's Go Jump in the Lake", is scheduled for release this summer.
The film will feature underwater photography and animation features created by Andersen. So, if you see multi-engine drones (UAV's) over the lake: don't panic, it's not NSA/CIA, it's science in action.
Lake Tahoe, California's Alpine playground, is anchored on the west shore by Homewood/Tahoma, straddling two counties:Placer and El Dorado. The mayor of Tahoma posts information related to the area and items of interest to residents and visitors alike. Its goal is to be informative, humorous, and timely. Hope you enjoy the site.
