It was so much fun to get away for a bit. We had such a great time visiting with our friends and I really enjoyed being out of the city. I joked with Walker that he should just leave me in Eugene.

They took us for a tour of the University of Oregon (where one goes to law school and the other works). The campus was so pretty. What I was super excited to see was Hayward field. The field that Steve Prefontaine ran on. I remember watching the movie about him back in high school back when I was running track and it stuck with me.

Later that weekend we also made it to a winery with the most beautiful views and ended up touring a local brewery in the evening. Nice safety goggles! Ha!

On our way back to Seattle I insisted we pick apples at an orchard I found despite the rain and mud. Now what do to with all those apples?
