We went camping down at Clearlake last weekend. We set up tent and read books the first night with a short trip around the lake. That night our air mattress completely deflated (twice) so we got up in the wee hours of the morning to go into Bend Oregon to purchase SOMETHING to sleep on (desperate measures after a bad nights sleep). We bought two cots (worth every penny!) and headed back. After napping a little we decided to do the five mile trek around the entire lake. Just beautiful! The lake is crystal clear and 250 feet down. Some men were scuba diving. The water is also FRIGID cold as it's melted ice from the surrounding mountains. We all (including Koda and Logan) enjoyed the hike and scenes.

We rented a little aluminum boat the following day and did some paddling around the lake followed by some nice greasy burgers and lemonades! It was a really relaxing trip!

What a beautiful camping spot. I can see why you like going there each year. This is the first time I have seen your tent, it's real nice. I am sure with the new cots it is a much nicer sleeping experience also. I love the pictures of the boys all tucked in! Wish we could have been there to share it with you.
