eve_primeI went to Hendricks Park and walked around the rhododendron garden a while, then up and down some of the neighboring streets. I played with the delay feature on the camera for the first time, with only silly results, and when I got home I somehow managed to delete the picture of the forest south of the rhododendron garden. I really love the very tall douglas-fir trunks, bare for at least 50 feet above the ground, then evergreen branches above.
Hendricks Park is a world class rhododendron garden on a hilltop east of the UO campus (at the easternmost edge of Eugene). The southern part of the park is a nice forest with a few trails; J. once obliged me by walking to the end of the main trail with me, which I'd long been curious about. My dad once said that there used to be a "herd" of some special kind of deer in the forest, but people shot some of them, so that was discontinued.
After that, I came home and resumed reading the Susan Cooper books (I'm on the second). My sister was surprised that I hadn't read them, but they were in a sense "after my time." But now I'm younger, apparently.
