Here are some fotos from 2020.  All of them close to home. The year of the virus and election. So it turned out to be a stay at home year. I had tix for 3 months in Europe to do "research" in several cities to see how they are pushing back against cars.  Wow, that would have been awesome.  Actually the research was an excuse to buy a bike and revisit/bike tour Corsica, Sardegna, Amalfi Coast and northern Italy .  Maybe 2022.  In prep, I have been watching Italian news on you tube to improve my Italian. Its a great excersize in attentions focus.
I was really tuned into the changing season this past year, temps going up slowly, then down, trees leafing out, planting the garden and then the Fall season.
It was a good garden year. Also, our neighborhood association has alot happening with life here in River Road. Its a privilege to work with others who care so much about where they live.  The fotos below each tell a short story about 2020.  Hard to imagine, I have lived in Eugene for coming up on 30 years.  Where does the time go?
