Another power horse day. I tried to let Bill sleep as long as he could on top of all of the gear in the Jeep. I couldn't sit still anymore around 7:30am, so I got out of the car. The cool air was amazing and woke me right up.Crater Lake is overwhelming and breathtakingly beautiful. It's the deepest lake in the United States (1,949 ft deep) and the 9th deepest lake in the world. It's known for it's deep blue color and gin clarity. I wouldn't want to go for a boat ride on this water without a dry suit on - warmth and fear of falling in the deathly water.
We couldn't stick around though. We had to make it to Washington. As we left the park, I asked the entrance for a map as a souveinere and they looked at me funny. They asked when we got in and i told them 4:30 am. We looked like nuts. Go figure.
Bill has been dying for an iPad. We've called every Apple Store we've passed around the country and no one has had one. I called Best Buy in Tacoma, WA and they had 5. By the time we got there at 4:30, we bought the last one. Yay! That's what I started this entry on over a week ago!
We made it to Ashford, WA that night. Right outside of Mount Rainier.
