Finding More Bridges

Searching for more of the many covered bridges in this part of Oregon, Nancy and I ventured down to the Cottage Grove area on Friday. We found four bridges in the “Covered Bridge Capital of Oregon,” though only one continues to be of use, the Mosby Creek Bridge, which is the oldest in the state, built in 1920.

Two of the others are only open to pedestrians now, including what was once a covered railroad bridge inside the Cottage Grove city limits. It is now part of a city park. It still crosses the Coast Fork of the Willamette River. The fourth seems to have been recently fenced off from all access, though the river below it provides a favorite swimming spot.

Parts of “Stand By Me,” the Rob Reiner movie from the 1980s, were filmed in Cottage Grove, especially the majority of railroad scenes, which were filmed along the railroad track that went up the Row River (rhymes with “cow”). That railroad track is now the Row River Trail, which we will return to at some point in the future to walk along. (We’ll also look for the other two covered bridges in the area.)

In addition to “Stand By Me,” other movies have been filmed in the area, including Buster Keaton’s “The General,” some scenes from “Animal House,” and “Ricochet River,” starring Kate Hudson.

Cottage Grove is about 20 miles (and 25 minutes) south of Eugene-Springfield along I-5. Its population today is about 10,000. Nancy’s brothers and one sister reside in the area, but we did not see them on Friday. The brothers were off to another part of the state, and her sister, Joan, was busy with a cooking class at the senior living facility she has recently moved into.

On the way south we stopped briefly in Creswell, reminded by two large billboards of the Creswell Bakery. Opened in 2008, the place has been called one of Oregon’s “bucket-list food experiences.” We bought a loaf of ciabatta and a delicious hazelnut sticky bun. It’s close enough we will certainly stop back often to enjoy more of their culinary delights.

My home in tsuki odyssey. I like this game unlike other games there’s no end goal or direction. It just simple at the end of the day. Yes there is some farming and fishing which keeps you active but it’s still just so simple. But also it is complex in a weird way with all the time affects the game. I like the little pocket village and honestly I like how they shaped there ads. It’s not constantly in your face with them. It’s not used to progress unless you need the carrots. I adore it and can’t wait to see where it goes from here. Also hey if it ever become a full cozy game released on switch it’s going to the top of my list.
