In this picture I resemble a dork, the water was as almost as blue as my sweatshirt!

Well I finally made it to Crater Lake. My friends and I camped at Diamond Lake not too far up the road from the national park. It rained a good bit the last night there which made for a soggy departure, but it was nice and cool up in them mountains. My $25 tent from Target that I bought a year ago is holding up quite nicely. This monday I get to go back to (in the words of Dan Orme) 'God's country.' This has been one of the best summers of my life. I feel as though it has been too good and that something terrible is bound to happen to me. Hmmmm....
