Lakeview Commons — proving South Shore has spunk

Live at Lakeview returns today with another free concert at Lakeview Commons in South Lake Tahoe starting at 4pm.

More boats keep showing up, so organizers have a speaker just for them.

While cigarette and marijuana smoke have been problematic, the air was more the traditional mountain freshness last week. Many who were told this is a non-smoking event extinguished their smoke and took their butts with them.

A mix of locals and tourists sway to the various bands breathing life into the South Shore. Bring food or buy it there. Bike valet is free.
