Autumn on the SOU campus
Soon things won’t look so great. By the end of November only the evergreen trees will be something other than brown and dreary. These last few moments of the fall season are to be cherished.
The buildings in the background of today’s photo of the Southern Oregon University campus are the Computer Sciences buildings (Computing Services and the Main Computer Lab).

Floater @ Rogue Theatre
Friday night (11/1/13) Floater headlined at the Rogue Theatre in Grants Pass. I think I have seen Floater at least two dozen times now. They are always wonderful. I wish they would coming farther south as the one time they played in Medford I was out of the country, and it has been more than a decade since they played in Ashland.

Hell’s Belles’ Amber Saxon
Sometimes I’m mildly disappointed with a band the second time I see them. Perhaps I build the first experience up in my head and expect them to top that false memory the second go around. In any event, that was not the case with Hell’s Belles on my second trip with them. I had even more fun the second go around (11/2/13 in Grants Pass) than I did earlier this year in Eugene.
More pics from this fantastic evening (including The Hollowbodys and 100 Watt Mind) coming soon.

You wouldn’t know it from all of the vineyards that have sprung up in California and Oregon over the past decade, but we are supposedly in the middle of a wine shortage that will only become worse in the future.
Today’s photo is from June of 2011.

Killing it
AHS was knocked out of the state tournament last night in Corvallis, losing in five to Crescent Valley High School. Ashland won the first two games.
