Crater Lake

Long time ago, I knew that the Air Quality score is 100 point at Crater Lake of Oregon, which means Crater Lake has incredible air!

But, what I really don't know is that Crater Lake's water is really the purest deep blue I have never seen in my whole entire life! Period!

Enjoyed Crescent City Beach and Meet Hmong People

Crescent City, CA, USA. We specially enjoyed the free-access beach in front of our hotel. We also meet a Hmong couple who were garbing crabs on the pier bank. We had fun conversation.

We went to the free-access pacific beach, which is in front of our hotel in Crescent City, CA. The beach is pretty good one!

He is Hmong from Laos. He is kind to show us the crab net. This time he just got a 5-inch crab which he was throwing back. 

The Hmong man just showed us what he already got. Those are 10-chin crabs. 

When we got out of Hamilton Road near Crescent City, the view is ineradicable.

Redwood Trees We Saw 2013 Summer

29 June 2013, we drove from Reno NV to Crescent City CA. We went to Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park. Next day, we drove through BIG redwood trees near the city which I think is in the Jedediah Smith Redwood State Park.

Near Redding CA, we saw Mount Shasta.
