Playing Catch UP

From the coast -- up and over the Coast Range on a rainy day -- and into Eugene.   Lucky us it became a marvelous Indian Summer weekend and we did a bit of "duty free" shopping to take advantage of no sales tax in Oregon.  A few new toys & clothes.  A bit of hiking in the nearby hills and it was clear enough to see the Sisters Mountains to the east (they loom above Bend, OR).

Eugene is home to the University of Oregon -- it was homecoming weekend.  The Ducks thrashed the UW Huskies.  Who cares?

Down to Grants Pass and a side trip to Oregon Caves National Monument.  Fun to explore a cave, but really not very remarkable.

Today we arrived in Ashland -- a bit of theater the next couple of nights & a chance to enjoy the healing hot springs.  Then we will continue south.
