Vacation time!

Well, I am off for 6 days, and I am off to another adventure. This time, I am going to Crater Lake National Park in Oregon and to Redwood National Park in northern California. I am leaving around 4 am and will hopefully get to Crater Lake by mid afternoon. (it's about 643 miles from here - close to a 10-hour drive - yipes!) I got my maps ready, my gas tank is full and I got my camera all ready to take tons of pictures :)

I wasn't really sure til about yesterday whether or not I wanted to go. But I figure since Crater Lake is only accessible for a few months out of the year (late June thru September - the roads are often closed due to snow - they get some 44 feet of snow a year up there), I better go now or I will have to wait til next summer. And while I am up there, why not check out Redwood Ntl Park, too? It is only about 3 hours from there.

So I am outta here for a few days. Happy trails to me!
