Lake Oswego, OR to Eugene, OR

Made my way to Eugene, Oregon. It's interesting - I am started to really feel the drag of being in a car. Two hours was more than enough time behind the wheel for me! Luckily, two hours was all I had to be in there and I was greeted with the warm hugs of childhood friends Hayes and Andrew. Soon to be joined by Lindsey. It was a domestic, chill afternoon and evening filled with back-to-school shopping (I love nature but boy do organizational office supplies hold a special place in my heart) and tofu kabobs on the outdoor fire pit! Nothing shoo's away the woes of driving like good conversation. Well, perhaps chocolate stout, sweet potatoes, rice, and veggies/tofu marinated in Hayes's homemade sauce. Not to mention the heaven of a chocolate dessert...

Perhaps after all this divine food treatment (and the lack of physical activity from driving) I will actually have to start reading my web address differently: no longer "Musings Of a Traveling Musician" but perhaps: "Musing, O Fat Raveling Musician!" or once I am really laden down with food: "Musing SOFA Traveling Musician!" Take your pick;)

  1. Mags, my friend, Jen Doolittle, got her Ph.D. from Eugene, OR. She loved it there. It's supposed to be gorgeous. I'm hoping you're taking lots of pictures. I can't wait to see them! I also wish I was able to taste your yummy dinner- it sounds fabulous! As for you being fat, or a couch potato, well... that'll be the day!!
