Airports and Memories...

Last night, at the historic Camp Richardson Lodge, we were mesmerized by David Borges' presentation showing the six different South Shore airfields that were either proposed or built.  He also discussed the many airlines that flew into and out of the Lake Tahoe Airport.  The conclusion was stories and photos of flying mishaps that occurred at the South Tahoe Airport.

What I love about these programs is the audience.  The room was filled with 'old timers' who knew the history with many of them having actually lived it.  Their input brought the information to life!  If I couldn't have been here in Tahoe at that time, the next best thing is to hear from those who were.

Most of the audience did not want the history lesson to end. Kudos to the Lake Tahoe Historical Society for providing such a great service to this community by sharing our town's fascinating past in such exceptional ways.
