The Newberry Volcano System

Lying in my tent in the next morning, my slumberous reverie was pockmarked by
a curious plunk-plunk sound. Since most of my dreams are rather bizarre (and
sometimes in TechniColor) I chalked it up to being merely a strange dream.
Unfortunately, as the cartoonish aspects faded out, the plunking noises got
stronger. "What an odd hallucination" I thought, until I woke up fully and
realized that my tent was being rained upon! As Jason and I got progressively
soggier, we made a fast breakfast, crammed all sorts of muddy stuff into the
car, and made a quick
getaway as the rains continued. Next stop: Bend.
