This hat was a big hit with all Lodge guests, let me tell you.
Tried to get a decent holiday card picture for these dudes.
It's way harder than you might expect!
Thank you, sir, for making Crater Lake a National Park!

Crater Lake 2
Last time we were at Crater Lake, the girls were too little to walk all the way down to the lake, and too big to carry. So this time we set out.
The young people even ran ahead.
YEs.
Maggie's hiking outfits, ever-legendary.
Rangers got angry at these girls for scratching the rocks with other rocks.
The crew.
These two have an interesting relationship.
Look at the color of that water. Famously cold! Would we go in?
They call him the sock-swimmer.
Probably the most iconic photo is this one of Ida and me jumping off a cliff, to many peoples' dismay.
Ida really liked all the cheering, and really thought this would get her in the newspaper....

We made it to the bottom, and found some sustenance.

Ida of course did, right away, several times; others moved with more trepidation.
Theo wasn't so sure.

She got a lot of Likes on Facebook, I guess. And this blog, read by 2-3 people.

Crater Lake 1
Yeah, against all odds and some better judgments we decided to rally down to the Crater. Blue, there.
Before long this daughter arose
Very fancy breakfast at the Lodge, I can report.
That's Wizard Island. We didn't go to it because the boats were full but we did cooler things, as you'll see.
Oh yeah, the Bradfords! It was very cold, but they came to camp:
Arthur has so many pieces of compression clothing, nowadays, that one might wonder how much he has left to compress. He did have to shutdown some noisy Indian camping neighbors.
He threatened to throw a stump at them!
Ah, more s'mores.
The next morning I got up earlier than everyone. This is a problem I have. But it did allow me to see the sunrise.

and these foxes

Margaret is so organized and bossy.
