Monday, September 2, 1929 - Eugene, Oregon


Home at last! That’s the way I feel about it. I feel like I’m walking on air. We’ve finished our trip yet it hardly seems possible. I don’t know what time it was when Mom woke us up this morning but I do know it was after nine when June and I were finishing the dishes. I thought that was when we were going to start but we didn’t get started until almost eleven. Mom and Mrs. Meyers wanted to get in as much talking as they could. We had lunch at Corvallis where the State College is. After lunch we drove up around the campus and around the fraternity houses. We found George’s house. It’s beautiful. And the Theta House is darling, white house with green blinds. We got to Eugene at three o’clock. We went to the apartment house the first thing. The apartment wasn’t ready for us to move into but it will be in two days. When we left there we drove around through the campus and there is none other that can beat it. It’s beautiful. Then we located here at the hotel and then went out to supper. The speedometer shows 16,000 miles.

Jane's Notes: Can you believe how many miles they put on that car?
