I then kept driving, stopped and bought a lot of supplies and refurbished after the theft, and stopped in Eugene at a mall thinking I could work on the blog. Foiled.
I took route 126 out of Eugene toward Bend, with a campground in mind. However, I didn't realize that all the sites were in the mountains and therefore still closed for the season. I tried 7 or 8 different roads trying to find a place to set up camp, and nothing was forthcoming. All private property or just soaking wet. I pulled down a random road and found the Belknap hot springs hotel, which was a shock. They had tent sites, and I ran around trying find one that wasn't under water in the dark for a while before giving up and getting a room. I soaked in the hot springs (bonus) and slept really well. The hotel was welcoming and warm, and Marlene proved a great host.
