Crater Lake
On the way back from Lake of the Woods, we stopped at a beautiful lake called Crater Lake. It was formed 7,700 years ago when Mount Mazama erupted and collapsed into itself. Its deepest point is 1,943 ft below the surface of the lake. Its astounding clarity is caused by the snow and rain falling into it, filling it with water. It is the clearest lake in the world, and the deepest in the U.S. There are two island in the lake, and also two cones (rising islands). It has set the world record for Secci readings, 143 feet. A Secci reading is very simple. Scientists slowly lower a black and white disk into the water. You measure how clear the lake is by how long you can see the disk. Here are some pictures that I took while I was there.

March Two Three Four
We took a walk into town on Friday afternoon to go to the library and get froyo. Charlotte's flip flop broke on the way there, so we had to get her a new pair. I got bad blisters on my feet, but Aunt Kristy and I popped them later.

Pittsburgh
Josie was just lying on the floor, without her shoes on, looking like someone needed to change her diaper.

Welcome!
Hi! My name is Bookworm. On this new blog, I will be posting about the adventures of yours truly. I love to read, and I am traveling a lot in the month of July, going to the lake with my family and much more. I love summer, and next year I will be a sixth grader. I am super excited to start this new blog, and I hope you all enjoy it.
Bookworm out. Bye!
