Brenda and Harlan's Trip Blog

In the morning Brenda went for a short walk around Fort Klamath while Harlan researched some items on the internet. We also spent time reorganizing the car. Didn’t leave the motel until 12:30pm. We drove to Crater Lake hoping to do some cross country skiing before we left, but the snow was wet and heavy from the rainfall earlier in the morning. Plus the lake was almost clouded over. Since the rainy cloudy weather was predicted for at least another week, we decided to head to Bend, Oregon. We arrived in Bend around 3:30 and drove around looking for a 3-star restaurant mentioned in the AAA guidebook, and when we finally found it we learned they had changed to a members-only golf club restaurant. After another false start we headed off to the Black Bear Diner (always great food at a nice price). After dinner Harlan went to visit some family friends (Kent and Beth) in Bend while Brenda decided to stay at the Holiday Inn Express and soak in the 4’ by 6’ whirlpool tub in our room. Great tub and the best room we have ever stayed in!!!
