Wednesday, April 15 - Thursday, April 16 (Bend, OR and Oregon High Desert)

Jon and I woke up on Wednesday and planned on heading out. However, we had some refurbishing to do. We found me a suitable shotgun after some trips through the various shops in the area. I hope that I don't have to credit Jon with helping save my life at the end of this trip, but I feel a hell of a lot more comfortable going to a place like Kodiak island now that I'm armed again.

After a quick bite to eat back at the homestead, we took off into the desert. There's not a lot I can say that would do the pictures justice. We had a fantastic time. Jon is a hell of a guy and a great source of knowledge about most things (the migratory habits of eagles notwithstanding). We took off into the desert and did a big loop, seeing settlers' cabins, Crack in the Ground, Fort Rock, lava tubes, buttes, and other interesting and beautiful aspects of the desert.

I'll leave the rest of the discussion to the pictures.
