Waning days of summer still allow some after dinner b-ball at the Meadows.

Robert, Rory and Cadie went camping this weekend at Fallen Leaf Lake near Tahoe. Jakob and Caroline Gron joined in the fun. Actually, it was a fishing trip.  Rory caught one (two-incher).

Did you know that Lake Tahoe holds 38 trillion gallons of water? Enough to cover the entire state with 14 inches of water?

Yesterday the Pierces were happy to host Marjorie Swanson and her son Peter for dinner and discussion.  And John came too. Marjorie came out from Minnesota for a visit! She is the cousin  of John Schwirtz (his father’s sister’s daughter).

Wow, Robert really likes these lessons on California school funding.

Prop 13, Prop 98, LCFF, Basic Aid funding, etc.  All explained in simple English.

Ugh.

Robert says, watch this.  All of it. Really.  It is good for you.

Mira’s favorite.

Say what you might, but 39 million views can’t be denied.

Cute.  Mildly funny.

Robert was fortunate to attend the recent wedding of his cousin (once removed) Richard Ochoa to Mariah Jausoro, in Spokane, Washington. Good luck to the Ochoas!

Robert says:  Watch this.
