Two years ago, my family traveled to Oregon for a family reunion.  It was a long way to travel.  Along our way, we stopped at Crater Lake National Park.  I was excited because Crater Lake is a volcano and I was curious to see a real volcano!  When we arrived, I jumped out of the car excited to see eruptions of hot lava and smoke!  However, I was soon surprised by what I saw.  Water!  Lots and lots of water!  It rains so much in Oregon that this volcano actually fills up with water each year.  Imagine that - a volcano that is filled with water.  It now looks like a lake.  I'm sure you can see all the blue water behind my family.  It might look like a beautiful lake in the forest but don't be fooled, it's a volcano!  This volcano is classified as a dormant volcano.  That means that this volcano won't always be full of water but is expected to erupt again sometime in the future.  Now I wasn't sure how long that might take and I didn't have time to wait around for it to erupt,  but it got me thinking - Can we make lava?  What do you think?  Let's explore this question together!
