da Vinvi days

So the 20th annual da Vinci days festival is going to be back in Corvallis on July 18th-20th. For those of you have never gone to this before it is pretty spectacular. they have art exhibits, live music, and all sorts of other crazy creations that people have come up with. There website is http://www.davinci-days.org/ for those of you that are interested in checking out what is going to be there this year. I forgot to mention that they have robots this year.....and who doesn't want to go play around with robots, come one don't lie to yourself. Anyways, I am going to be there for sure so hopefully all you will do the same and head on out. I think the tickets are fairly cheap to. 15 for all day and like 8 for one day. Last year I bought mine at Corvallis Tourism on Harrison. So anyways, hope you can all go out and enjoy the festivities.

Finally Summer



So I woke up this morning and as I walked to work I realized that it is FINALLY summer. The grass is turning that beautiful emerald green color and I no longer have to wear a sweatshirt. That means swimming in the river, drinking with friends in the front lawn, hiking the trails and just overall good times to be had. I need to find some fun events to attend as well, I am thinking some Saturday farmers market trips are in my near future as well.

Been to Long


Well, it is officially my last week as an undergraduate (which is why it has taken me so long to post more blogs.) However, I am STILL not leaving Corvallis. Four years and I can not imagine myself wanting to live anywhere else. Thats why I have recently applied to graduate school and.....was accepted, yah for me. That means two more years of awesome food, good friends, staying up way to late, and getting into trouble for things I should probably not be doing (that last part is between us.) Besides all of this exciting news, I got a chance to go to Fireworks Restaurant and bar on 3rd Street yesterday. "And the survey says," simply amazing. Organic vegetables and pasture raised meats. I consider myself no vegetarian but any time I can eat delicious food while not knowing it is good for me I am happy. At least this way I can pretend to be extremely environmental, and have a good meal. I will be living in Corvallis over the summer so hit me up with a post if anyone is ever down for a bar night (which I think is my real reason for liking Corvallis now a days)
