Weekend Trip to Crater Lake

Click on the title above for information about Crater Lake.
We had a great trip over to Crater Lake. It is about a two hour drive from home. The weather was beautiful, nice and warm, except up around the lake it was a bit chilly, the elevation is around 6,000 ft. and as you can see by the pictures there still was plenty of snow.

Center View of Crater Lake. ***Blue Blue Blue Water***

View to the right of Crater Lake. If you could put the three top pictures together you would have a panoramic view.

Front of Crater Lake lodge. To the right is a 15 foot wall of snow.

Close up of front, they even had a doorman. The lodge opened the day before.

Large rock fireplace inside the lodge.

Bark lined staircase.

This little cafe in the town of Union Creek, between Shady Cove and Crater Lake. They have great pies.

Across the street from Becky's Cafe is Union Creek Resort Lodging and Gift Store.

A historical home along  Highway 66 called the Walter Wood House  constructed in 1879, just north of Eagle Point.


What house would be a home without one of these.

Hail, Hail the Gangs all Here

Here are a few of the Horseman dolls from the 70s and 80s.
Can't tell you how many times some of these young ladies went to their home beauty parlor and got a hair trim.
The little sleepy eyed guy is just hanging' 'round the girls.
And, I am wild for blue blue hair, not many folks are brave enough to go bright blue, only for the young!
Also, don't let that sweet little red haired freckle-faced girl fool you, she is all mischievousness.




Oh, what a motley crew!
