August 25 our family headed out for a little mini-vaca and checked out Crater Lake (about 90 min. from Bend).
At 2000 feet deep it is the deepest lake in the U.S.
It is a caldera filled only by precipitation, hence it's pure clarity.
Um, not next time... we paid 4 BUCKS for a PB & J!!!
So pretty... you can drive all around the rim of the lake

These were called the pinnacles
Interesting volcanic fumaroles
Here is the princess travelling light.
She is carrying 4 bags in this pic, and I had to take her shoes for her for our 2 night stay!!
Medford is the home of Harry and David.
Their pear orchard is in Medford as is their production plant, so the next day we went on the free tour they offered. It was really interesting.
EVERYTHING is packaged by hand!!

Wow that lake is incredible!!! Wish I could see that Harry and David place. Cool!
You always seem to come up with new "Bryan Adventures." Have you toured the whole state yet? Fun times for your family.
I loved the Harry and David tour! I still have yet to eat their pears but because of that tour have given them as gifts to many a person. But thanks to their free cookies on the tour I buy those all the time :)
Crater Lake was beautiful! It's a perfect spot for pics!
