I messed up the days somehow. This is supposed to be day 56. I will get around to changing them later.

Woke up and decided it was too cold to move. I couldn’t hear anyone else so I thought back on the past few weeks. It was hard to believe that I was almost done. Deciding that moving around would make me warmer I got up and slowly packed up my bike. It has become so routine that I don’t have to think. We said goodbye to the couple that let us share the campground. About 4 miles down the road there was a convenience store where we stopped to use the bathroom (since the campground had no running water) and wait for the weather to warm up. The store was playing really good music so it was nice to sit for a while. I wasn’t in any hurry since it was only 50 miles into Eugene. Even typing that was weird. A 50 mile bike ride is short! haha

Along the way we saw more blackberry bushes. It was too irresistible not to stop. I put some in my water to give it some flavor. I think if I was biking through Oregon again I could survive by just eating wild blackberries!

In no time we made it into Eugene. We got a motel room to wash clothes and get organized before the last day tomorrow.
