Eugene, Oregon

HANGING OUT WITH RICK & SUSAN

Today we went shopping in the morning with Rick & Susan. We all met up around 10am and headed over to the local Costco. We can't buy much there, since there's just 2 of us and not a lot of room for big stuff, so we only got a few things. Then Rick thought he knew where the Trader Joe's was, but it wasn't where he remembered it to be. So...after driving around Eugene for awhile, we finally used the internet aspect of my phone to locate it. Once we did, we were able to get some of our favorite things, in sizes we can handle. Rick & Sue invited us back to their moho for lunch, an introduction to our first salmon burgers. They were yummy! Then it was back to the moho for some cleaning, laundry, and naps. Naps were the most important. Later that evening they also treated us to a fabulous dinner of lemoned halibut, fried portabella mushrooms, & salad. We BYOB'd some wine, since they don't drink, and some bread from Trader Joe's. We headed back home early since they are getting on the road very early tomorrow to head for Vancouver. We were happy to be able to see them and look foward to seeing them in Vancouver in July.
