Trip Report

Verna Kocken was leader of the Christmas Lights trip, with Liz Reanier assisting. Twenty four of us left Shopko at 4 p.m., driving I-5 to Roseburg to have dinner at Applebee's restaurant. Afterward, we took a tour of the festive lights. A Civic group sponsors the big drive-thru, with all the theme settings decked out with lights, sound, and animation. There are more every year. After the lights tour, we drove through some residential areas to view lights. Then back on I-5 to Eugene. It was a fun way to end our bus trip season.
