    Travel to Tahoe

    Last weekend I drove to Lake Tahoe from Silicon Valley with my wife and my brother visiting from the East Coast. I am not much of a skier but my brother is so the two free lift tickets helped prompt his visit.

    We drove out early Friday afternoon and snuck past the winter snow storm before it really got going. I really hate driving through the snow even though I grew up in the Midwest (so I know how to drive over ice and snow) and was driving a 4 wheel drive SUV which meant that I did not need to use chains. That said, there was about a half hour stoppage near Twin Bridges where chain controls caused quite a backup on the highway from California to Lake Tahoe.


    Given the snow forecast, I did not want to park in the open lot so I drove to the Harvey’s covered parking structure. As I was looking for a parking space, I saw that there was a sign that said “Total Rewards Preferred Parking “ on Level 3. I then saw a parking area with a parking gate barrier and a card kiosk. I tried to stick in my Seven Stars card, but it did not open the gate (like at Ceasars Windsor in Canada does) so I then went around and found an empty parking spot farther from the bridge to the Harvey’s casino. Here are photos of the sign and the card reader.

    To be continued . . .
