Sun and Snow



This Bend vacation has had its share of disappointments. The Children's Museum we promised Elizabeth we'd visit had closed down -- it doesn't even exist, except in the tourist literature. The breakfast joint we tried to eat at had burned down -- at its address was a vacant lot. Today we tried to sight-see a waterfall, but the road to it was closed due to snow. We pressed on, looking for Sparks Lake. Oddly enough, the highway dead-ended in the parking lot of the Mt. Bachelor ski resort. By this time, Elizabeth was getting fed up with being in the car so long, so we got out of the car and into the snow and just played.

The weather was gorgeous: warm and sunny, with deep blue skies.

Last Gasp of Summer

Sunset the first night.   It's been a good summer, but certainly more constrained than usual due to the COVID-19 pandemic...
