Odell Lake, East Access:

Yesterday, I woke up on my Mom's couch, gathered up my boy and his belongings and headed out. First stop was Hirons (the coolest store in Eugene), where I bought Angie a gift for all her trouble. We visited with her in her new hospital room, since she was already out of ICU. Then, Nigel and I headed home. He was all surrounded by pillows and drowsy from his pain medicine as we drove over the mountain pass. We stopped at Odell Lake, and I took the pictures below ... it was so windy and so pretty.

Nigel will be staying with us for a while. For those of you who haven't heard yet, he has a bad disk in his back, is in painand is not able to go into the Navy, as he had planned. The first step is to get him healed up and then he will be looking for work as soon as he feels better and will probably be going back to school. It has been a roller coaster few weeks for my boy, as he tries to figure out a new plan, but we know that everything will be fine.


In the meantime, God gave us this beauty, which really lifted my spirits yesterday:
