Weekend At
OUND ABO UT TO W N
U of 0
The bright, follicking and flirt­
ing sun traveled faithfully by my
side, as the big wheels of the Grey­
hound bus confirmed “Leave the
Driving to Us,” managed and driven
by a southern belle who recited the
house rules, “No smoking, no driv­
ing or smoking marijuana” on the
bus.
As we approached our State
Capital "ah, a beauty to behold,"
nature at it’s best The Pioneer Man
statue perched on top o f the building
beckoned a welcoming attitude, of­
fering his gracious gift of the most
beautiful fall foliage, brilliant pallets
of fall colors, burgundy, red, gold,
yellow, orange with rows o f trees
which formed the rolling court gla­
cier of green grass lay beautifully
before the Rotunda, making way for
the water fountains and sculptured
court, a sight to behold. Declaring
fall, where the trees will harbor trick-
or-treaters wearing NIKE and Ree­
bock tennis shoes - playfully rolling
and kicking the splendid exquisite
shaped leaves and chasing the stor­
age-minded squirrels. Absurdly, the
hidden ghost of Albany’s air sudden­
ly made me pay attention, along the
way the homesites, little old red barns
painted a lovely picture. The fog
lingered along the highway laugh­
ingly to unfold the pleasure, excite­
ment and secrets to a college parent.
Over the freeway and across the
bridge to the University Inn we go.
Cobi, Nicole and DeMetrea
University Inn Sweethearts” upon
my arrival were in class.
Parents sign-up was no
where in sight. Bravely I
ventured out to find Co­
lumbia Hall Chemistry
class of 300 students. As
I joined Cobi, Professor
Bames handed me a chem­
istry quiz with a welcome
smile, luckily the bell rang
advancing me to the liter­
ature writing class with
discussions on "Capitalist Kills Cul­
tures” to “Economics Worth Waiting
On or Keeping an Eye on.”
Tennis shoes, boots, Birken-
stocks, denims, sweats, flannel and
woolen plaids were the uniforms most
commonly seen.
These boots were made for walk­
ing and that’s just what they did - 7
blocks for lunch. Passing some of the
2,000 trees, 200 species across the
campus. Taking time out at the end of
the day-napping through Tom Cruise’s
A Few Good Men, the entire U of O ’s
basketball team paid an unexpected
visit, awaken to find Andre, Jamal,
Tanar, Brain and Johnathan’s smiling
faces, height galore.
Saturday, the science library re­
search project was less exciting than
the loss of U o f O ’s football game to
Arizona State, sad faces lead to gear­
ing up to the famous U of O ’s parties.
Taking a break from the togetherness,
I patronaged the MacDonald theatre
to see “Powders" an electrifying mov­
ie with a low “freakquency's” high
impact from beginning to end - worth

seeing - enjoyable with
a futuristic point o f view
W hile there, I was invit­
ed for dessert by Ken
and Brenda Warren and
Lawrence and Aloma
Douroux to the Mona
Lisa restaurant where
we enjoyed a stunning
delicious creamy pump­
kin cheesecake, my fa­
vorite Johndiva, a truf­
fle like chocolate richness, moist
fudgey cake.
Sunday brunch was delightful
as President Dave Fhrommeyer,
former attorney general o f Oregon,
joined me in the long buffet line at
Willamette Hall - an inter-disciplin­
ary concept combining physics,
chemistry and biology, commonly
known as the train station due to the
architectural structure.
Fhronmeyer stated the Univer­
sity’s fiscal budget was halfa billion
dollars with 17,000 plus students.
His daughter Katy about 4 feet tall, 8
years old looked up admiring my
Halloween sweater and asked, “Do
you think O.J. is guilty or innocent?
I think he did it.” I didn’t respond.
Collecting hugs to return home, cul­
minating complaints from the trio
stated school is fine but they should
do a better job in placing roommates
and also diversity on cable - BET is
unobtainable due to viewership.
“Be w ith the One you want to be
with," around about town in Eugene
was a delightful experience.
