Best Western New Oregon Motel Eugene

... like jumping into a cold pool I don't think it will take me long to get "warmed up" again. <br><br>In case you're wondering what the phrase in my URL is, it comes from this song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MsXknE8L OEI<br><br>The meaning of the phrase is almost impossible to translate. But it kinda means "it's going good for me". That's the best way I can put it. <br><br>So, until January I'll just have to say à bientôt!

... Now....I don't remember either of us saying anything out loud like "wow, things are going smoothly" ...but I know we were thinking that. So, when we got to our car, it was dead, dead, dead. After an unsuccessful try at jumping it via the hotel van, we called AAA and they sent someone out to help. It took a while to charge up the battery again, but 90 minutes later, we are finally on our way again. <br><br>But wait.....we're really low on gas ...

Dre.. transform and roll out..<br><br>Drove up to Eugene this weekend to stoop it with Benja and his lady Rachel. ****in refreshing.. <br>I met Benj in Kathmandu almost two years ago and he's pretty much my life. So being with him was incredible. I could go into details about my amazing weekend but it's just not going to scratch the surface or begin to explain his importance in my life. <br ...

I went back up to Eugene, picked up Katie and we drove back to Idaho. On the way there we camped in the Cascades at the Metoleous River. The photos don't really show how incredible this is, at the mouth of the Metoleous the water comes out of the side of the mountain. Turn around and it's a full river.<br><br>We drove through the Craters of the Moon National Monument, also an incredible area.<br>

We left the ranch and came to Eugene OR a city I lived in back in 1988-90. I came here to participate in a few workshops and visit with good friends. This was the beginning of what I have called my ping-pong ball travels where I went between Eugene and Firth several times. This back and forth could be one of the reasons I was less motivated to ...

... of clay. And on top of that, they are very fragile. So while I was able to find one at a very affordable price, by the time it was packed safely enough to ship somewhere, it weighed about 40-50 kilograms (90-110 pounds). That's way to heavy to check as baggage, and it would cost a fortune to ship back home by any method other than ocean liner. So my dreams of having a tandoor at home were dashed for the moment. But alas, I wasn't going to give up so easy. As soon as we got back to the ...

... have in our heads (having never been there). So last February, we set out a goal to save up enough money this year to make the trip and see the sights. Things were looking good for a post-christmas departure (as that would work out best with my work) But then we got invited to a wedding in Delhi by one of our friends. As many people have commented: that's an opportunity of the lifetime for some people, so we jumped on the ...

... for the placement was to be in the library of the William W. Knight Law Center at the University of Oregon. (By the by, the law center was named for 1932 UO graduate and father of Philip Knight, a founder of Nike and UO benefactor.) The primary mover for this action was a law professor there, and whose family since her great, great grandfather have had intimate relationships with Chief Joseph and his descendants. She arranged a welcoming ...

... relationships with "those" Friends. The truth is that we have found many kindred spirits on many levels among Evangelical and unaffiliated Friends of the Northwest. We've found a great openness to explore ideas, with the message of John Woolman as a common touch-point. We've made close friends and have felt very comfortable everywhere. The differences we've found are sometimes in the form of worship or the place of the Bible in their lives. But we've also found much comfort in all ...

... local shops starting at the 5th Street Market. The first ever Nike Store is located here (apparently Mr. Nike, himself is a huge Ducks fan) as well as some small boutiques featuring local artists. If you didn't already know, Eugene is notorious for its hippies and its college students. We encountered a couple of guitar-playin', dancin', free-lovin' folks as we walked through the ...
