Continuing the series I began a couple weeks ago, here are some downtown businesses long before they opened for the day.
Another photo of The Black Sheep can be found here.
If you have a large screen, click on the image for a bigger view so you can see your options with Noah’s River Adventures. Do you want to go down the Rogue River, Klamath River, or Salmon River today?
The old SOU logo is being replaced with a new one. The one in today’s photo will likely be replaced in the next month. The art buildings can be seen in the background.
I always thought the old logo was supposed to represent the mountains, but I recently heard that they are supposed to be the windows in Churchill Hall. A photo or two of the new SOU logo will be coming here soon.
The weather has been really great in Ashland since returning from hot and humid Tokyo. Every day the highs have been in the 80s, lows in the 50s, and best of all no humidity. The humidity is about the only thing I don’t miss about Japan.
Before my year in Japan I would visit Quiznos about once a week for lunch. It was my favorite place for lunch in fact. Just across the street from SOU, the Quiznos sub sandwiches were far superior to Subway (which is actually on campus).
After a week back in town I decided to go out for my first meal back home. I totally missed the “Space For Lease” sign and went straight to the door. There I found the sad news that Quiznos had gone out of business. Nooooooo……
I guess they didn’t think I was coming back to support them. 
There was always a line at lunch so I’m not sure what happened to cause the crash while I was gone. Maybe the place was empty at night and on weekends?
I bet there will be some students next month who are unhappy to find Quiznos went under while they were away on summer break.
This picture has so many Ashlandish things in it, from the Ashland Drug Store to the OSF heraldic banners, from the vampires to the psycho pushing a stroller. It’s all here.
I think you are OK making a left here if this is the only oncoming traffic.
