It's just a little lake in the High Sierra, totally overshadowed by the much bigger, more dramatic Lake Tahoe nearby.

But it's the lake my family has been going to, every summer, for 10 years.

Goodnight, lake. See you next summer. Bless you. And thank you.
So pretty, I miss that place! Hope you had so much fun.
