Like most good things, you must wait, and The Tahoe Rim Trail proves it. The loop trail was not completed until September 2001. The 164-mile loop trail encircles glorious Lake Tahoe in all its splendor and passes through National Forest, state parks and several wilderness areas. The lake covers a surface area of 191 square miles, with 71 miles of shoreline snuggled among the Sierra Nevada mountains on the border of California and Nevada. The rim trail offers spectacular views of the alpine lake shimmering up to the sky.

The trail opens usually in mid-June, when the snow has melted off, and closes again in late October. The trail design takes into account the hiker, mountain biker and equestrian. The goal during construction was to not exceed an average grade of 10 percent. Mountain biking is permitted on half of the trail. The loop can be accessed from anywhere around the lake or surrounding cities.

Most of the trail winds along the ridge tops offering views of nature at its finest. The peaks that surround Lake Tahoe, and upon which the trail rests, consist of granite rock covered with a wide variety of trees from mighty Aspen and Cedar to White Fur and Ponderosa Pine. Saunter past meadows of wild flowers- golden yellow Mountain Mule Ears and firecracker red Indian Paintbrush.

Rise past flowing mountain streams and don’t forget to look out over the incredible Tahoe Basin in all its brilliance. Hundreds of small lakes rest peacefully at higher elevations above Lake Tahoe. You can walk under trees, through meadows or above the tree line rising close to 11,000 feet at points. Be on the lookout for bears- the trail meanders through their country.

Triangular light blue trail markers planted along the trail help hikers found their way, but the signs don’t always last the winter, so be prepared with map and compass. Camping areas abound in some areas of the trail, while in other areas, like Desolation Wilderness, no designated camping areas are permitted. In some areas, campfire and camping permits must be obtained.

The trail can be accessed from the Sierra Nevada and Carson Range spur. Whether for a day hike or much longer, the Tahoe Rim Trail caters to all levels.

Just as trees, flowers and plants help our environment, add a food source and make our landscapes beautiful so too do aquatic plants provide the same for your aquarium.

Just like us fish like to have areas where they can swim around and nibble at, but plant life in the aquarium plays a much greater part in the aquatic environment.

Toxins in the water created by rotting food and fish excrement pollute and starve the water of vital oxygen. Remembering that the fish breathe water through their gills we know that it is vital to keep oxygen levels up in the tank. Aquatic plants will help the process and uses the phosphate created in the nitrogen cycle to help them grow.

So what is the nitrogen cycle? Just like on land the leaves, plant life and animal droppings rot and mulch down into a fertiliser. Plant roots take the fertiliser and use it as a feed. In the aquarium rotting foods, and fish waste falls to the bottom of the tank and turns into a fertiliser for the aquatic plants. In turn they produce oxygen through photosynthesis just as the trees and flowers do above water. More oxygen means that the fish can breathe healthy clean and safe water.

Aquatic plants also play an important part in the breeding process of fish. Some species lay their eggs beneath the leaves away from other predatory fish swimming around the plants to ward off fish from nearing them until the eggs hatch, the leafy plants then offer a good food source for the young fry and indeed many adult fish enjoy nibbling on the fresh leaves as much as we enjoy our garden vegetables.

Not only are aquatic plants important to the tank environment but offer an exciting landscape for you and your fish. Imagine walking through the countryside and seeing no trees, no flowers and plant life, pretty grim thought yes? In the same respect the underwater garden offers you the chance to create dramatic and stunning plant effects that will give you hours of watching pleasure as you see your fish happily swimming and enjoying the garden you have given them.

Different plants have different visual effects, look around your aquatic centre and ask for advice as some plants are hardier than others and therefore easier to look after. You will also need to ensure you have a good substrate for the roots to grow and a plant food, this usually comes in liquid form and can be added at intervals to ensure your plants get what they need to survive life in the tank.

The plants come in all shapes and sizes, various colours can brighten a drab looking aquarium, this not only creates great effect for you and any visitors to your home, but also gives the fish a greater enjoyment. When you plant your garden, use your imagination, create an effect you will truly be happy with, and if you need an extra hand there are hundreds of ideas to choose from in websites and books readily available on the net, library’s and in your local aquatic centre.

Once the bridal bouquet and ceremony flowers are chosen, it’s
time to focus on what type of wedding reception flowers you may
use. You’ll need to look at food tables, guest tables, the head
table, as well as decorating accents throughout the room.
However, you don’t need to use only flowers. There are a wide
variety of choices of greenery that can also be put to good use.

First, you must understand where larger flower arrangements are
appropriate. and where they are not. The fresh elaborate floral
arrangements can be used on buffet tables, cake tables, on
stands near the entrance and staircases, and close to the band
or DJ. These types of arrangements, however, should not be used
on guest tables or the head table as they are too large and will
block the view of the guests.

Table centerpieces created from flowers should be kept low and
small. Make sure they compliment the overall color scheme and
theme of the wedding. Nor do all the table centerpieces have to
be identical. A unique and interesting idea would be to use a
variation in the types of flowers, yet with the same color
scheme.

Small bud vases are incomparable used on guest tables. A great
combination wedding favor and table centerpiece idea would be to
cluster small vases with a single flower in each. After the
wedding, the guests can take home one of the bud vases as a
wedding favor.

If you can not afford to use many large floral arrangements,
choose 2 or 3 for the buffet tables or other key area and
decorate the rest of the room using balloon bouquets, tree
branches with twinkling lights or rented palm and/or ficus trees.

Edible bouquets are also very popular for table centerpieces.
Spun sugar sculptures, fruit baskets and miniature tiered
wedding cakes also serve a dual purpose as a table decoration
and wedding favors. or as dessert at the end of the meal.

Here are a few extra wedding “flower” bouquet ideas you may want
to consider:

- Wedding wishes cookie bouquets – Milk chocolate long Stem
roses candy bouquets – Twinkle pop/lollipop bouquets

As you can see, you can incorporate many “floral” bouquet ideas
into your wedding scheme without breaking the bank. Large floral
arrangements are beautiful to look at, but they can also be very
expensive. Consider some of the alternatives to help save money,
yet still create unique flower arrangements that will delight
your guests.
