We think the fog has finally lifted! It was really thick for a while and Shavorites were beginning to think they lived in the Valley; it was difficult to drive. But today the sun rose in the sky and at 3:24 P.M. it is still there.

After a lot of hail and snow it is really nice to receive gentle soft rain. Frankly, I was sure that Spring was really here until I received the information that it is supposed to snow down to 5000' this evening. Hmmm, that could cause the Easter Egg Hunt to be a bit different this year!!
Happy Spring!

...and it is shining brightly here in Shaver. We have so much snow--and Sierra Summit has received 32 inches since Monday. It should be a marvelous day to ski!
Miracle March--it has gotten us through the dry spell before and succeeded again this year. It appears though that we may have a Miracle April as well with two more storms headed this way.

Lakes, mountains, boating, snow skiing, water skiing, hiking--Shaver Lake has it all! We have Fourth of July fireworks on the lake, wine tasting, The Black Pot Cook-off, fabulous weather, bountiful wildlife, and so much more. Let me update you each day with all the fun, excitement, adventure, and happenings here in Shaver Lake. If you don't read the Shaver Lake Blog, you're out of the loop. Get with it!
I grew up in Fresno (my husband in Sanger)and now live in Shaver Lake and have for the past eight years. We only wanted a mountain retreat...but we were spending so much time here that before long I was teaching at Pine Ridge Elementary and we moved here full time. My husband still commutes to Fresno and claims it is "no problem." I have two sons, one lives in New York, and the other in Fresno. I am currently selling Real Estate(www.ValerieMortensen.com)in these mountains and loving what I do. There are many Real Estate Associates so the competition can be tough, but I would not want to sell Real Estate anywhere else. Helping clients find that special mountain getaway is very special to me.
