Coeur d’Alene Bike Trip - Day 6

I visited Aunt Sue today. I got up early to drive down to her house in Eugene, where we talked for a bit and she told me she’s selling her house! We decided to drive out to the coast and try to fly a kite. On the way we went through one of the areas she’s thinking of moving to, Veneta, where I spotted this swell hot rod.

Wow!!! Aunt Sue Should Move Next Door To This House!

It was a bit too windy to try to fly the kite, so we stopped in Florence at Lovejoy’s Tea Room for a delicious lunch, then had a nice drive north along the coast on the 101. We stopped at a spot along the way where there are Pitcher Plants (Darlingtonia California) growing.

We also stopped near Cape Perpetua and did a short hike.

On the way back, we stopped for a delicious dinner of  ling cod and chips at the Luna Sea Fishhouse. It’s nice when you are with a local who knows all the best places! After getting back to her house, I bid Aunt Sue a sad goodbye and drove back to my hotel in Portland.
