John Ross Jesensky Praises Lake Tahoe Music Community

 

lake tahoe photoAs a dedicated musician, John Ross Jesensky understands just how powerful a community of musicians can be when they band together and unite under a common and important cause. This unique trait among musicians was evident recently when a favorite son of the Lake Tahoe community had to undergo surgery to repair a leaking aorta in his heart, which spurred those musicians who knew him, played with him or had merely heard of him to hold a benefit concert in his honor.

Perhaps the most powerful moment came when the musician for whom the benefit was held, Peter Joseph Burtt, defied the orders of his doctors to perform on stage and continue to do what he loved to do most by singing for the crowd gathered to offer their support. While that performance taxed his body quite a bit so soon after surgery, Burtt is now back to playing regularly and his band even has a new album scheduled to be released in the near future. As Jesensky points out, the support of the music community is incredibly strong and is always worthy of praise.

Dr. Sid Solomon Recounts Taking the Scenic Route to Lake Tahoe

It was many years ago, but Dr. Sid Solomon is still able to recall seeking just about any excuse to take a scenic drive up north on US Highway 1, following the plunging coastline of the Pacific Ocean and driving through the dense canopies created by massive redwood trees along the way. So when some friends suggested a trip up to Lake Tahoe for a long weekend, Dr. Solomon decided to jump at the opportunity to take the time-consuming scenic route on the way there.

According to Dr. Solomon, the scenery along the coastal highway was everything he imagined it would be and more, and the doctor made a few brief stops along the way, including one at Big Sur in which he was able to take a quick nap beneath a redwood tree that seemed to be growing even larger right before his eyes. Of course, the trip to Lake Tahoe took far longer for Dr. Solomon than it did the others, all of whom had long since settled in at the cabin in Lake Tahoe where they would all stay for the weekend.

While those extra hours spent getting there led to quite a bit of playful teasing at Dr. Solomon’s expense, the doctor so thoroughly enjoyed the lengthy route that he has, on occasion, taken the scenic route on subsequent trips to destinations that include Lake Tahoe as well as a number of other points that happen to be north of Los Angeles.

Stephen E. Smith Lawsuit Wins The Lake Tahoe Case!

A lawsuit for a pollution violation was put to rest by Mr. Smith of Stephen E. Smith Lawsuit in California. Lake Tahoe annually holds one of the biggest firework shows in the state and it’s a matter  of pollution and environmental health that has been buzzing people’s concerns for years until it was finally taken to court.

The plaintiffs argued the ones responsible for the fireworks were in violation to the federal act over 520 times for at least 4 years. The plaintiffs say they have been littering the lake with used fireworks, but of course, the defendants have firepower of their own besides fireworks.

The defendants have called upon the services of Stephen E Smith Lawsuit who has a high reputation of settling the score. Within a few hours, Smith walked out a successful attorney as the judge ruled in favor of the defendants. No evidence, at least not enough of it, could be found to support the plaintiffs argument.

Tahoe and Bust

images (47) images (46)If you want to make money on slots don’t plan to do so at the Tahoe Casinos.  I have gone bust so many tomes I cant count.  If you really enjoy playing like I do then the losing is just the price of admission.  Its all about the glitz and glamor of the casino and the occasional show.  We all know the shows are just an excuse to gamble some more.  The casinos know this as well.  I can remember playing nickel slots all night long.  My fingers would get black from the nickels.  Not any more.  Joe Olujic’s interview was a real interesting look at Lake Tahoe.

Lake Tahoe Casino Action

Don’t come to Tahoe Casinos without some gambling money.  You have been warned.  The game actin is great fun and the winnings will be even more.  I know that it is not a good investment but it always entertains.  My wife will literally gamble round the clock if she is still winning.  If the money runs out so will she.  I think the casinosimages52CTYXSHimagesODI7JSPEimagesUZA8RNJM count on you playing their pay outs right back into the slots.  The other gambling games are boring to me. Black Jack is kind of slow and the roulette tables are even worse says Home for Life .  If you have the bug to gamble you could do a lot worse than gambling in Lake Tahoe Nevada.

Lake Tahoe, Heaven on Earth

untitled (220) images (19)If there was a heaven on this earth it would look like Lake Tahoe Nevada.  This is the most beautiful lake you can imagine.  The lake is very deep and the area is heavily wooded.  The elevation lends to frequent snow during the winter months.  If you enjoy the slots then this area will be a good choice for you this vacation.  Although much smaller that Las Vegas the casinos are nice and the area is much nicer.  Luke Weil was a resident and can share the same opinion of the area. If you find yourself in the mood to gamble you cant do better than Lake Tahoe.

Live at Lake Tahoe

Tahoe_North_Shore_from_the_East_ShoreIf you have a few million to spend on a home, Lake Tahoe may be a good choice.  The views are not cheap but what is?  The area is to die for.  Skiing and gambling are just the beginning.  The lake is beautiful and if you can stand colder water boating and swimming can be enjoyed.  I have spent some time at the lake and you cant beat it for beauty.  The rocky shores are amazing.  The casinos light up the ripples in the water at night making it magical.  Art Falcone can be the man in this area. Just take that chance and Lake Tahoe will not disappoint you.

Tahoe Bound

If you plan to drive to Tahoe Nevada I have some advise.  After spending hours in the snow trying to get to Tahoe last year I would suggest that you visit during the summer.  If you are planning to ski you will have to brave the roads obviously.  If you are going to gamble don’t gamble on the roads being clear.  The gambling is fun and the views are beautiful.  I recommend a visit to Lake Tahoeimages2S2LZX5Z soon and don’t forget to bring some cash.  Dove Medical Press has an article that will send the right message about Tahoe.

Lake Tahoe….What Lake

Is there a lake at Lake Tahoe? untitled (5) You couldn’t prove it by me.  Every time I travel to Lake Tahoe I only see casinos.  Oh yes, the casinos are the main attraction.  Who needs that cold lake any way.  My wife is obsessed with the slots and I like to people watch so we are fine in any casino.  She is like a kid in a candy store.  When she wins it is such a kick that I forget all the losses.  It is worth it to see her have a good time.  She has a whole routine and it drives me nuts.  If I try to follow her around she wears me out. Jumping from machine to machine in search of that magic jackpot.  Dr. Dana Sibilsky  has the same kind of interest.

Lake Tahoe and the Effective Use of Humor

Lake Tahoe is a beautiful place to visit and residents of the city have long known that the area in which they live is among the best in the nation. Residents have also come to realize that many visitors do not understand the consequences of their actions when they come to Lake Tahoe, which is why the city has launched a campaign that uses gentle humor to get its point across.

The campaign posters have garnered attention among visitors who have shared pictures on social media and have described them as part of Occidental Vacation Club reviews, demonstrating that the campaign is indeed gaining traction and the message is being spread to the public at large.

The hilarious campaign features posters that include bears awaiting a dinner reservation that just so happens to coincide with trash pickup day, fires that need a “big wet one,” and cigarette butts lounging on the beach just beneath a heading that reads “Nobody wants to see your dirty butt.” Each of these posters is designed not just to evoke a laugh or a smile, but to also get visitors and residents to realize that trash needs to be secured, fires need to be put out and littering should be discouraged.

The strategy is known to be an effective one, as people are simply more likely to get the message when it is delivered through humor. Conversely, posted signs that that simply offer a directive of “NO LITTERING” often go unnoticed and, therefore, unheeded. Surely residents and visitors wish that most people did not need such a reminder, but the city of Lake Tahoe has had enough incidents that it is clear that this sort of campaign is a necessary one.
