Adventure Grrl is back to the Reno-Tahoe Blog, after taking a hiatus to have a baby, now known as Adventure Baby. This past weekend, I was getting stir-crazy, being stuck at home for the past several weekends watching my infant daughter. Saturday night, the hubby and I packed up the baby and headed to Downtown Reno for a relaxing stroll and dinner.

We walked around the Truckee River Whitewater Park at Wingfield, where there was a concert in the ampitheater and kayakers playing in the water. The temperature was perfect, and it was a lovely time.

We then walked to Harrah’s Reno and ate at Andreotti, which is a wonderful Italian restaurant. They have an amazing pianist/accordian player that really helps set the mood.

On Sunday, we hiked the Thomas Creek trail, which winds along a roaring creek (thanks to the snow melt) and amid a grove of Aspen trees. This trail is very close to Reno, and is a great escape from city life. The sounds and smells of the surrounding wilderness are extremely refreshing.
