June 6th we set out on our trip in Walter. We felt it only right our first stop was the mountain town that inspired our daugher's name, Roslyn. We love to stop here to eat after hiking or climbing. She slept through lunch, we took her for coffee and a walk down the town street, ran into a VW van friend, and set off again.
The first day and a half were more about getting distance from all the places we'd already been and to start figuring out how to live in the van.
We learned one person cooks or cleans at a time. We determined this after we both spilled coffee while trying to help or do two things at once. That our fridge was not working anymore off propane and had to plan out fresh food only a day at a time. That Roslyn at this stage mostly just sleeps so we can do whatever we want and right now she'll adapt easily. But when she wakes up it's nice to make a stop and get out to intentionally spend time with her and pay specific attention to her.
That is what ended us up at Anthony Lake. She was up, wanted to play a bit so we walked around the lake. Gave her some sunshine, stretched our legs. She also spit up while we were taking her photo. Then we were in Oregon for the night and officially living in our van.
That's so cute how you were inspired by her name! That lake looks stunning!
