Bend: the Trip

So we travelled this last weekend down to the middle of Oregon, which sounds very much like saying "We went to the middle of nowhwere." and in fact that is almost true. It's true in the month of April, of which this is. Near Bend, OR most things closed for the winter open May 1. And Mostly things open for the winter close at the end of March.

No wonder we got the accomadations so cheap. Also Tammy and I both had colds. Her's was worse than mine and mine wasn't much fun.

That being said, it was way fun. We took a fair amount of pictures. I wanted to get 3 times what I actually took, but we were hanging out in the room for some of it we intended to be out and about. We want to go back when it's all open seeing things like the Lava Cast forrest and the Lava Butte would be great. We got within a mile of the lava cast forrest and couldn't go any farther due to snow.

She did let me drive the whole way home which was nice. I have write ups for all but the last two days and I want to write those up tonight. I'll also post some of the photos taken digitally soon and those that require scanning after that.

Try not to take vacation when you're sick.... (just a tip)
