Day Ten - Lakeside, OR to Forest Gove, OR







We were up and adam early this morning and on the road by 6am!! About an hour into our travels we pulled into the sleepy town of Elkton. With a recommendation of Kathy and Tom we stopped at Tomacelli’s for what turned out to be a fantastic breakfast. We then continued west in search of Crater Lake. (With the detour in our trip we missed it on the way north). As we entered the park, we looked around and were baffled – there was SNOW on the ground!! We circumnavigated the most beautiful, pristine body of water I have ever seen. I would not even know how to begin to describe the water in Creator Lake, and I assure you these pictures do not do it justice – definitely something I urge you to experience for yourself.
We then headed north towards Forest Grove (just west of Portland) to Michelle’s. We were once again greeted with open arms, good company and a home cooked meal (and pie, and bread and jam and biscotti). We are more than blessed to know so many people that are willing not only to put us up but to spoil us rotten!!
