On Saturday, four Great Basin Costumers "invaded," as we do, the Sugarpine Living History Day, a mildly 1900-1930s event held at the old Ehrman Mansion on West Shore at Tahoe.
We went in 1920s to 30s attire, toured the house, enjoyed a picnic on the front porch, and admired the grounds.
More photos.......

| Here's our party of four |
 |
| Mom in the Ehrman Mansion. She's actually standing under the original elevator. This is where it would come down. |
 |
| Debbie and Oscar Sessions. They always look so perfect :-) |
 |
| Old car bits. |
 |
| Old boat bits. |
 |
| Mom on the pier. Her dress is made from an original 1920s pattern. |
 |
| Oscar and Debbie going for a swim in Tahoe. They're far braver than I. |
 |
| Vintage swimmers. Oscar in his 1920s style men's swimwear . He's the bravest guy I know. |
 |
| Mom + Hat. She's proud of her hat. |
 |
| Anachronistic sunglasses, but I don't care. They're fun :-) |
 |
| Debbie and Oscar contemplating the water...how cold do you think it is? Well, there's still snow on the mountains, so.... |
 |
| Mom and our beautiful Lake. I will never tire of taking photos at Tahoe. |
 |
| More vintage photo fun. I love going to events where somebody lets you sit in their old car and take a photo. :-) This photo is also done with the 1920s photo tutorial, and I added a vintage frame. |
And such was our day. If I have to miss Costume College, at least I got to play dress up with friends, still :-)
