alan, this msg indicates the pacific crest goes by south lake tahoe!

Please see if there is some local book that covers that area. I'll buy it
and leave it with you as a gift.  Might have you have breakfast in Lake Tahoe
Drop me off with snoe shoes and I'll hike out over night(s). I'll call you
on my cell phone and we can them met again the next day or two and have
dinner or lunch on the lake depending how it goes.  Just another idea in
the hopper.

MCI has now lowered its rates. it's 9 cents 24 hour/day and on Sunday only
5 cents.
