Eugene
Stormy old weather last night and not much better today. Made the shortish drive from Ashland to Eugene. Had lunch at the Glenwood Cafe which is still there and still serving the same tomato cheese soup as it has for more years than we remember. Spent a long time driving around looking for a motel (the place we usually stay was full). We ended up in Springfield in one of those chain hotels by the freeway. Comfort Suites--a little more deluxe than we are used to. The bonus is that there is a brewpub right across the street !!! There is a big rowing regatta in Eugene this weekend and the UW crew team is staying at our hotel. Kit calls them the legacy team--following in the legacy of the "boys in the boat".
We had a visit with our niece Kate and Spider-Man Max (who is going on 5) this afternoon and meeting friends for breakfast tomorrow.
