Oregon Coast, Part 1


We are sitting here at a campground just outside of Crater Lake in Oregon. Talk about a beautiful lake! Wow. We will post pictures later.

Yesterday was day 1 of the trip, from Provo to Reno. Thankfully, everything went well and the trip was uneventful. We saw some of our favorite flowers, you know, the kind shaped like orange barrels? Well, Nevada has lots. After we got to the RV park, we fixed rice and stir-fry. Yummy. Great selection of cable TV in the park but no Internet access.

Today as we left Reno, we were stuck in traffic for almost an hour as there was a very serious traffic accident ahead of us. We finally made it through and found a alternate route to Crater Lake. The road was narrow and steep but was it ever pretty. I love forest therapy!

So now we are at the Diamond Lake RV Park. Trying to decide what's for dinner. And trying to entertain ourselves. We are really roughing it tonight--no TV reception at all. Good thing we brought along the box of DVDs, puzzle, games, books, crafts. They might not have TV reception but they do have Internet access. I guess it's not too rough out here.

Tomorrow we make our way out to the coast and up to Newport for the next 4 nights. I'll update tomorrow.
