Crater Lake

We could not have asked for a better day.  The weather was perfect.  After eating a great breakfast at the hotel, we drove to Crater Lake.  It was a beautiful drive.  The roads were lined with beautiful groves of        trees.  There were a lot of folks at the lake.  The parking lot was full but in true Art fashion, we scored a     great parking spot.   We hiked down to the lookout.  I don’t know if we are getting used to the hikes or we are in better shape, but the hike didn’t seem bad at all.  Sadly, the visitor center there was closed today. We made an another stop to get a different view of the lake and then we were off to La Pine.                              

We got settled into our hotel and watched a little football.  We grabbed a sandwich at subway for dinner then we went to the hot tub.  True to its name it was really hot.  The pool was equally cold.   We didn’t stay too long but it was nice to let the jets beat up our tired bodies.

Tomorrow we’ll  head for home.  It has been a great time! So happy and grateful we got to do this.
