Ashland, Oregon

We spent so much time in and around Ashland that I thought it was only fair to pay it some homage.
Ashland is divided between the yuppies, old hippies, young hippies, and grungy kids. We met just about all of them.

It turns out most people are as grateful for a nice chat as a few cents. These guys were pretty cool, even if they did only strum a few notes on their guitar.

Ashland once tried to develop an economy with their Lithia Water, which is highly mineralized. Their plan fell through when they discovered it didn't taste so good. Jim made a point to develop a taste for it, though!

This quote was pinned up on a bulletin board in town. It seems like this quote becomes more and more true every day.

Ashland was our home for a couple weeks and we loved it. Until we meet again!
