Eugene, Oregon


We said good-bye to Bob at about 10 this morning. It took us 6 hours to get to Eugene; probably the max the boys can tolerate without a major break for a hike or something. Even with 2 short dog/kid run breaks, they started to complain about sweaty, hurting bottoms after 5 hours, which of course then degenerated into bathroom humor....


We're staying at a La Quinta hotel with a pool, and nice river walk right out the front door. Quite a nice first day. I'm glad to be off.

  1. I'm guessing a swim fixed them right up. What does Lottie do while you swim? Do you have her cage?

  2. Yay for the good start, Sarah! I can't believe you are actually off and you will be gone for 6 weeks! Have lots of fun! Looking forward to following your trip with your blog.

  3. We didn't bring the cage, but Lottie stays nicely in a hotel room while we're out. At 3 she is mellowing. The swim indeed, fixed the boys right up.
