I think what most of us are reacting to is that the state doesn't look that big on a map, and you can get fooled easily about how long it takes to get somewhere.
especially when part of the state between where you are and where you want to be is ON FIRE.
as for crater lake, I wish I could be there, but just finishing up one vacation an cant take more time now.
