Museum of Natural and Cultural History on the University of Oregon campus

@UO_MNCH

A couple months ago, my back was killing me as we toured the Museum of Natural and Cultural History in Eugene so I sat down and stared at this map for at least 20 minutes. The longer I looked the more I saw. Turns out, you can purchase this item from the source here.

Today’s photo comes from a hike on a trail called Amanda’s Trail near Yachats, Oregon in November of 2016.

My random, desktop background image of the day is this one from a show in Medford six years ago.

East Applegate Ridge Trail

Yesterday we discovered a new trail less than 40 minutes from Ashland. The trail isn’t actually new, but it’s rare that we stumble upon a new trail to us after living in Southern Oregon for 20 years. The trail is a little over 10-miles out and back or five miles if you leave a car at one end. There is a parking lot at each end, although some trail descriptions say there is no parking on the west side. That parking lot (difficult to find as there are no signs on Highway 238 near Ruch) is relatively new.

Trampled By Turtles @ Britt (2015)

@tbtduluth @brittfestivals

Britt members have been able to purchase tickets for last month’s announced shows for a while, but the general public tickets go on sale today. Click here to purchase tickets.

Trampled By Turtles will be back in 2020. I missed their last appearance when I was out of the country, and I’m in the same boat this year. Maybe next time…
