Oh also!

When I was in the post office today, there was someone mildly famous in line ahead of me. I didn't realize it until she was at the counter, when I could see her name on the box she had resting near me: Terri Irwin. She's the widow of Steve Irwin, the Australian naturalist. I knew she was from Eugene but hadn't thought about her potentially visiting here. It turned out that she was friends with the clerk at the middle station- she was telling him about the weather in Australia and the lodge they've just added to their property, and some conservation work they're doing in Singapore. Cool!

Wow, I didn't realise she was from there!

I can walk to the house she was using as her return address in 15 minutes. :)
