Moving to Eugene Oregon

Saturday I took pictures around the Hayden Bridge neighborhood. It was raining, so not many people were out and about.

The Hayden Bridge neighborhood is north of the I-105 freeway and east of I-5, bordering Eugene. Bordering it to the north is the Gateway Mall, the new Riverbend Hospital (a new building that opened in 2008) and several large employers, including Symantec, Royal Carribbean Cruise Line call center and the hospital.

Here’s some photos I took of Page Park, next to Page Elementary.

Behind the park is a paved, off road bike and walking path.

I just listed a home three blocks from this park and bike path, at 1080 S Street. It’s about 10 minutes from the hospital.

From the park, heading north on 14th Street is a short but lovely country drive to the McKenzie River and Harvest Landing birding site and the Rodakowski Boat Landing.

Nearby is Willamalane Park and indoor community pool. No one was about, since it was raining, but I took these pictures of the skateboard park and playground. In the background is the indoor pool.

As I was heading to my car I couldn’t resist taking a picture of these pretty leaves on the sidewalk.
