It’s Hot and We’re Cool with That
It’s Hot and We’re Cool with That This is our ’56 Chevy at Tahoe’s yard. Our dad had to have it because it was the make and model of car he learned to drive with. Difficult to justify keeping around the fence yard, until you see our kids fall in love with it like our father. No AC, but you have windows you can direct the airflow into the cabin. Just drive faster for more air. Plus, the car is a classic. As good a reason as any to wash it and make it shine. And you can have someone post a selfie of you legally driving without seatbelts (it’s a classic and has lap-belts.) Yeah, it’s hot and we’re cool with that. Have a safe and fun time this August at all the area car shows.

“Adaptation”
“Adaptation” Tahoe’s word for today is “adaptation.” With prices and availability for material continuing to be far out there, adaptation is key. Tahoe has customers who are waiting for heavy (old Tahoe), grape stake cedar. The problem is we’ve been waiting months for a unit at a time. And the units are outrageously expensive. The solution, adapt to the situation. Tahoe has reclaimed grape stakes. They’re what remain from previous projects and tear outs but are in excellent condition. 1st, Sort for height and condition. 2nd, Remove the nails without leaving hammer marks. 3rd, bundle units.
Helping Our Community
Helping Our Community Tahoe Fence is grateful to be asked, and proud to help out the Boys and Girls Clubs of Mason Valley with this year’s “Night in the Country Nevada” music festival at the Lyon County Fairgrounds in Yerington, Nevada. We are pleased to provide 2,000 linear feet of temporary construction fencing for the festival which takes place this coming July 21 – 23. Pictured: Tahoe Fence trucks and trailers loaded-up with the first shipment of the 2,000 linear feet of construction panels for the Boys and Girls Clubs of Mason Valley and the “Night in the Country Nevada” music festival.
Fireworks On The Fourth?
Fireworks On The Fourth? Did you get to see fireworks, or a drone display where you live for the 4th? Or like us, did the weather put a stop to it? Doesn’t feel like the 4th of July without a celebration of red, white, and blue. Cowboy Fireworks will have to do! Hoping you had a wonderful 4th and enjoy a happy, healthy Summer. Pictured: Porch bench made from reclaimed fence wood with cowboy fireworks – horseshoe wreaths painted red, white, and blue – in Carson City.
In A Pickle About What To Do This Summer?
In A Pickle About What To Do This Summer? The weather is heating up, so get outside and enjoy all the gifts our area has to offer. There’s beaches & lakes, river rafting, fishing, golfing, disk golf, trails to bike and hike. And if you’re still in a pickle about what to do this Summer, try Pickleball. It’s one of the fastest growing sports. It was created in 1965 in the state of Washington. There are no dress code requirements. You play on a court about 1/4 the size of a tennis court. And the pickleball you use travels about 1/3 the speed of an average tennis ball. Pictured: 10′ high, all black Tahoe Fence pickleball court enclosure in Rubicon Bay at Lake Tahoe (El Dorado County.)
It’s Summer
It’s Summer Now it’s official. The first day of Summer. Students have been saying it’s Summertime since school got out. But today is the longest day of the year, the Summer Solstice. How are you going to spend it – at work, the beach, fishing? Maybe some golf or disk golf? There’s lots to do. Good thing it’s the longest day of the year. Pictured: About 1,700 feet of 2-rail, split cedar that Tahoe Fence crews built in Carson City to help protect the habitat around the disk golf course from vehicle damage.
Beautiful At Any Age
Beautiful At Any Age Hard to believe that Old Glory’s design was approved on this date back in 1777 by the Second Continental Congress. But then the Stars and Stripes looks beautiful at any age. Even at 245 years old! Pictured: American flag on a Tahoe wood fence with cap and face board with an automated, ornamental iron slide gate in Carson City
Some dread heading to work on Mondays. Personally, we like the view from our office.

Congrats To All The Grads
Congrats To All The Grads School is getting out for the summer. So from all of us at Tahoe Fence, congrats to all the grads. Whether it’s elementary, middle, high school, trade school, or college, congratulations. Tahoe’s always been found of those with their “PHDs” . . . POST HOLE DIGGERS! Rocks, like what’s pictured with this 2-rail, split rail in Carnelian Bay by Tahoe City (Placer County,) aren’t going to move themselves. It takes someone (Tahoe’s crews) who know what they’re doing with a digging bar and diggers to make a fence look good in that type of terrain.
