Crater Lake National Park: Day 1

Our last weekend together as a family, we took a three-day camping trip to Crater Lake National Park.  Crater Lake is Oregon's only national park and it is only 3 1/2 hours from us. :)  It was our first time to this park and well worth it.  It is also a great park that you can experience in a weekend.

The land heading up to the lake in the park is pretty barren.  Not much vegetation grows.






Our first views of Crater Lake!


The reflections on the lake were quite beautiful!




The varying blues were amazing too.

We met our friends, the Gulden family, at the park and took a hike together.


And take in this view!



The trail to the summit.

For dinner, I made Rustic Italian Tortellini Soup and quesadillas.
















The perfect ending to a day out in nature. :)  
As my daughter says,
