    Crater Lake Century 2009

    To disable ads, please log-in.

    Registration is open! I just registered for the imperial century. Who else is going?

    Short description from the website:
    Crater Lake, the deepest lake in the United States and the 7th deepest in the world is located in the northern part of Klamath County and was chosen as the site of the century ride because few places on earth command overwhelming awe from observers as Crater Lake does. Even in a region of volcanic wonders, Crater Lake can only be described in superlatives. Stories of the deep blue lake can never prepare visitors for their first breathtaking look from the brink of this 6 mile wide caldera.

    You betcha!

    Lee & I are both signed up for the Imperial Century. I don't know how I'll be by then, but it's something to shoot for.

    It's a great ride, highly recommended. Here's hoping it won't be quite as hot out as last year!

    Here's my blog from last year's ride: http://callmepokey.blogspot.com/2008...wonderful.html

    And my pics from last year (the ride, and the days before & after):

    Oh how I want to do this ride this year!

    We signed up last year and then had to miss it. I'm hesitant to sign up and then not be able to make it again. What to do...what to do???

    Anyone know a goat-sitter we could hire?

    Really? Someone local to us that we could hire for a weekend? If so, send me a PM!

    The yellow family will be there. We're making a vacation out of it.

    Methinks there is a TE Crater Lake Century movie in the works...

    When you say "family", how many legs and tails are involved?

    That would be 12 legs, 2 tails, and 4 opposable thumbs. 500+ pounds of living, breathing beings. Kind of scary when you think of it that way.

    The cats are staying at home. Someone has to keep the raccoons out of the house.

    Hey, we are bringing two tails as well! Er, as much of a tail as an Australian Shepherd has anyway!
