There’s a vision I’d like to share with you: a transcendent lifestyle, rich in lakeside luxury living,
19th century European chalet heirlooms, family memories in the making and fast friends. At the
heart of it all , what we came here for in the first place, is an eternal passion for mountain life.
F.
But first, a remembrance of things past, when gentle folk and the rough and ready alike escaped
to Lake Tahoe for long weekends and summers, dressing in black tie for formal dinners at Tahoe
Tavern , daring 100-foot cliff jumps at Squaw, running mahogany-planked sedans across the Lake
by the light of the summer moon , trapping bear and playing ladylike badminton matches clad
in white linen .
A.
The past invigorates the present as I dream of such a world that still exists.
Not a moment to waste. There are picnic baskets to pack for excursions to hidden beaches. Speed
boats and wave runners docked and ready at the pier. Athletes in search of their personal best.
Lawns groomed for croquet and bocce ball . Novels and crossword puzzles to contemplate. Corn to
pop in baskets over the outdoor stove, before the temperature drops.
C.
B.
At long last, with winter’s cloak, I will settle in during blustery nights, a wind chill index of -2,
my dogs curled up by my feet, a fire roaring, mocha in hand, listening for sleigh bells.
D.
Come play with me.
Welcome to the world of Dragonfly.

The mountains are such an inspiration for design . The
quaking aspens, the wildlife, the rivers. Luxurious
furnishings mingle beautifully with rustic. Colors we
choose mimic nature. Many homes are handed down
in families, beloved furnishings in tact over generations.

Skiing Olympic Lady before the crowds arrive. Freezing

The best part of living in the mountains is the mountains themselves.
Most mornings, I’ll hike the cross country ski trails, dogs in tow even in thunderstorms. Our destination , a pristine reservoir three
miles in , and if we’re lucky, an encounter with beavers. Solitude is
happily interrupted with dogs jumping in the stream, hikers ambling
by and the occasional squirrel . The wildflower shows are captivating:
Larkspur, Indian paint brush, orange lilies and purple lupine.
Blooming, I think, just for me.

4th of July is a big holiday up here. Town is packed. All my clients, including
me, are doing the same thing, planning big menus, stocking up on food at the
farmer’s market, buying candles and sparklers. Getting boats ready to launch.
Awaiting the rush with mounting anticipation – when our kids burst in from
college and family friends fill the bunk house.

I press my face against the glass, watch the snow fall and wait for friends and family
to rush in . Even the house seems to hold its breath in anticipation , joyously festooned
for the holidays. Packages have been wrapped with care and delight, the fire is roaring
mightily, hot buttered rum - ready to serve in spectacular pewter mugs. Cozy elegant
flourishes set the stage for another glorious season of celebrations.
Sublime is the word that comes to mind.

I used to come to Tahoe for six weeks
in the winter and ski everyday. I’d
walk to town and strangers would stop
me on the street. Instant friends. I
loved the fact that in 3 minutes I
could be wherever I wanted to be. I fell
madly in love with the gorgeous air
and how everyone’s into nature and
their animals. I found kindred
designers to help me build Dragonfly
Designs, people capable of integrating
art, culture, creativity and the out of
outdoors with ease, joy and grace. It’s
been nine years since I moved here
and I’ve never looked back.
