Our Last Stop

 Our final hotel of this stay was at the Oxford Suites in Redding. This hotel also had a mini fridge and a microwave, plus a big television.

There was also a desk here, too. Some people do travel for work, and they would need these kinds of things. I guess I could work on vacation, work on my blog, but I usually go sightseeing and then rest.

There was a couch in this lounge area in the room, and a table where you could play games or set out some snacks.

And we had another big bed. I like lots of big pillows and they had several of those on the bed.

Kicking back for a few minutes.

I thought this was interesting fabric for the curtains, it reminded me of old scrapbook paper that used to come in big packs.

I was ready for dinner so I was looking to see if there were any local restaurants to go to.

I kicked back on the bed until we all came up with a plan.

We settled on Marie Callendar's which shared a parking lot with our hotel. I was super hungry so I got a salad bar with dinner.

With my salad I had broccoli cheddar soup. It was still winter, so this was a good thing to warm myself up with.

That is a big menu.

On our way from Eugene to Redding, we were at a rest stop and we saw this sign.

I guess I thought this was a pretty area?

I was also very excited about seeing this Valentine's tree at a gas station/taqueria that we stopped at on the road.

So we finished our dinner and went back to the hotel. We had a couple of things planned for the next day. A place I hadn't visited for a long time and was happy to see again.

Sweet dreams!

Wedding Fun

 I attended a wedding of friends of my humans. It was at an intimate winery with a restaurant in front and a party room in the back.

There were balloons all over the floor and it was play time. People danced, and they would also toss and throw the balloons around. It was fun to see that.

One of the cakes they had was this pretty swirl cake.

There were nice little candles on the tables for mood lighting.

We all got favor bags that had candy and some nice smelling pockets that we could use to make our clothes smell nice.

The wedding had pretty decorations and good food. I liked getting really dressed up, the sparkles and frills were a nice change from my usual casual wardrobe.

A belly full of cheesy potatoes and a couple of glasses of champagne means it is bed time.

Made It to Oregon!

 After many more hours of driving, we made it to Eugene in Oregon.

As I always do, I took photos of the room before I unpacked my stuff and messed it up.

They had a spacious desk with lots of outlets, but I wasn't here to work.

This was a side table of the desk where you could keep more stuff.

I had a giant king sized bed, perfect for spreading out like a starfish.

I should remove my boots.

There was a mini fridge and an even mini-er coffee maker.

They even had a microwave so I could heat up some snacks.

The bathroom was very spacious and modern.

The shower was big enough for three or four humans. So big! And the included shampoo smelled of tea tree, it was so refreshing.

We had a view of the Willamette River. I really wanted to go there to take a walk and maybe catch a fish.

It was so pretty, it reminded me of being in the forest.

After settling in, I ordered a calzone for delivery. It was super tasty.

After my dinner and watching a Netflix movie, it was time to sleep. All that travel is tiring.
