Oregon


Well I made it to Oregon with no problems. The drive was loooong and quite boring. The entire east side of Oregon is nothing but nothingness. It was straight long roads with nothing to see.

We had some fun stops along the way; we stopping in a little nothing town called Brothers with nothing within 70 miles of it. We decided to eat at the little Cafe/gas station/post office/gift shop/grocery store....all in one! Well all the regulars were there (I'm guessing that's the entire town) and they were very old friendly men. The one old man told us crazy things and took our picture then told us he would email it to us so we would always remember that day. It was fantastic! And to make things even better I had the BEST bacon cheese burger I have ever had. So if anyone is planning a trip to Eugene anytime I would suggest stopping in Brothers and trying one of those!

Everything else has been going good, we have been lost a couple times in this town. Oregon is quite different than Utah in many ways. The street signs, the stop lights, the spiders!!! But I am having a great time exploring this place and learning new things. My apartment is beautiful; the picture is taken from my back patio, it is a very green place with trees EVERYWHERE!!!

Well that is all for now, I will be posting pictures of the town and all the weird things I am not used to, so check back soon! I miss everyone from home but know that I am doing great and I will talk to you soon!
