Crystal Crane Hot Springs, day two!Mar 26, 2012

We drove into Burns this morning to get diesel, it was stormy...
Snow squalls and rain, wind and the temp is just about 40F....brrrrr
Water laden clouds.
| We decided to give ourselves a day off from traveling and what a great place to do that. We are, as you can see, way out in the wild blue yonder of Oregon, the town of Burns being the closes hamlet at 25 miles away. We drove into town this morning to get diesel and a few groceries and ran into a wild little snow storm. Our little Dixie was pretty interested in the ice crystals that blew into the truck and very daintily ate a few of them. I would imagine it was her first ever taste of snow. Back to Crystal Crane Hot Springs and I wandered around to take a few photos of the place. I wanted you to see the steam rising off the pool but I guess the air temperature is not quite right for that. I'll try later. So tomorrow early morning we will slip out of here and head over to Bend then decide which route to take to continue north and west. There are snow storms predicted for the mountain passes between here and there and we will do whatever we can to avoid it. Probably go up to The Dalles then over to Portland and Vancouver Washington. Enjoy your day! |
