Travelers Inn 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!

... we don't want to turn the car off again. We let the car run for a while and then headed to get gas. Filled the tank and held our breath as we turned the key......YES.....it's alive !!<br><br>Then after one bathroom break for Don's ever shrinking bladder and dinner with Derek...we made it home. We both slept much better last night, but now I'm starting to cough......maybe we stayed away about a week too long. NOT.<br><br>Signing off........Don<br>

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 ...

... wanted to ride with any protection i did finally remove mine when we hit the outskirts of Eugene and if it as hot again today I may not be the only one. Stayed at the Broadway Inn which thankfully had a pool an ice machine and wifi. Eat in a nice restaurant Mc Menamins nice food and local beer. Found an interesting Pub called the Beer Stein more bottled beers than ...

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 ...

... tact, although the curing glaze I'd painted on the inside had been completely incinerated. I also noticed that the mortar I'd put on the bottom of the garbage can had all cracked and fallen off. At first this really worried me, but then I realized that it looked like it was nothing more than a different heat expansion properties between the steel and the mortar. The mortar was designed to stick to stoneware (which is does very well) and it it probably designed to expand at the same ...

... for coffee at a cafe on the river. We then continued on to bike through community gardens, playgrounds, rose gardens, forests, and along the Willamette River. Eugene puts the focus on a grand quality of living. So much is built for the people who live here. Andy and I are duly impressed! It is totally wonderful here in Eugene. And what a guide! After biking for hours, we all of a sudden are back at the parking lot! Great job Vic! We all climbed in ...

... to clean and move (Cassie even estimated 2 hours... ha!) These things always make me nervous. I'm not a fan of deciding what to keep and what to throw away. Like Caesar at the games. Thumbs up or thumbs down. I tried to keep my thumb down as much as possible, but some **** is just hard to get rid of. Anyway, long story short it got done. Big thanks to Mom and Cassie for helping with the dirty work, and Thad for helping with the heavy work. Without ...
