Feeling nostalgic about leaving my summer home tomorrow, so I thought I'd post one last blog from Oregon before I go. I'm mad that it took me all summer to leave the cafe with SCM; now that I've finally found really nice, cool people at this used bookstore that has WIFI access, it's already time to leave. The guy here even gave me my last cup of joe on the house to bid me adieu. Why didn't I come HERE all those months?
Everything's just about packed, just need to clean out the smelly car and wash some linens before I load up. In true Lauren fashion, though, I am procrastinating going home and completing necessary chores...*sigh*
I'm really going to miss this little town of Roseburg. It turned out to be a lot friendlier and cooler than I originally gave it credit for. There are very few places where you can go wine-tasting, hiking, swimming in the river and owl watching all in one day. This summer was exactly what we three girls needed, even if we didn't know it when we moved out here. We saw loads of stuff, did tons of fun things and met a lot of really great people, some of which, I'm certain will be lifelong friends. So, as I bid the PNW (Pacific Northwest) farewell, I carry with me many fond memories of beautiful scenery, yellow jackets, tumbling down hills, thorny vegetation, bears, elk, songbirds, canoeing, dinners with friends, horseback riding, holding a spotted owl and much, much more. Good-bye summer. Good-bye Oregon.
Next stop, Redwoods National Forest, California...
