We left Ashland around 9 and got to Eugene, OR around noon. Son Brandon and his girlfriend, Josselyn live about 14 miles west of Eugene. They moved there in June. Brandon is a mechanic for Volvo and Josselyn is currently waiting tables at a local diner. They have a nice home - 2 bedroom unit in a brand new four plex.
We had a wonderful dinner that night at a local winery called King Estate Winery. It was one of the best meals I've ever had and not too expensive, either. This pic is Brandon, Pat and Josselyn at dinner that night.
The next day they both had off work, so we went out exploring Eugene. We found a nice bike/wal
king path next to the Willamette River not far from the University of Oregon. It was 65 and clear that day, so we took about a 2 mile walk around the river, then decided to check out the winery in daylight.It was at the top of a hill with a gorgeous view of the Willamette Valley. We tasted some wine, enjoyed the view and headed back to B & J's house to make dinner. It was great to visit with them and I think they enjoyed our company.
