Today was a figure it out as you go day. To get to the next shelter location was a 44 mile ride at an expensive Bed and Breakfast. 44 miles... a bit farther than I thought would be smart for the start of this adventure. So I am next door in Springfield, OR getting ready for a long day tomorrow. My plan is to spend tomorrow night at Belknap Hot Springs which is 60 miles from Eugene. However, I do get to spend 2 nights at the Hot Springs, which I love!
Today I did go see University of Oregon football stadium, for those who like Ducks. Seeing the stadium makes me want to take in a game there one time!
I will say, Eugene is very bike friendly. Willamette River bike path is beautiful. Riding a bike around the city is easy and well thought out. However, clearing these paths when it snows would not be an easy task.
Today I spent time lounging around, eating good food, and doing laundry. I just couldn't stomach paying $2.00 to dry a few clothes so I turned my room into a drying rack! But now I'm thinking that might not have been the best idea. My room is so humid they are barely drying.
