diamond lake












In August, we took our final summer vacation to Diamond Lake and then Crater Lake.  We camped at Diamond Lake last year and had a wonderful time.  We picked out a camp site and a boat to rent for this years trip.  The big difference a year made was the weather- we set up the tent in pouring rain, and it stayed chilly for the remainder of the trip.  Regardless, we again had a blast at the camp site.

Richard and the boys are now experienced campers and we have some pretty tasty meals we enjoy, know how to make campfires, and have learned some not-too-scary stories to share at night.  We rented a pontoon (patio) boat this year for a day of fishing.  We were more determined this year to catch something, but no fish were interested.  We did enjoy a day of floating on the water and reading.

We brought the bikes and the four of us biked around Diamond Lake- Owen and Mom both making it up all the hills.  The sun even came out at the end of our trip, and dried up all the gear.
