August 10: Corvallis to Medford

Owen: Embarking on our first of many days together, the brothers and I stepped into our humble 4 runner, and set across the majestic Oregon landscape. After dropping off Brianna in Eugene at her new place of residence, we continued onto Medford. We arrived after a relatively easy few hours, and were greeted with open arms by Andy and Nate Atkinson. Similar to most Medford visits, we started by eating, playing basketball, swimming, and then eating once again. Bringing us to the creation of this blog. Packed and ready, with full stomachs, the brothers Momsen and chaperon Brady are excited to start our journey!


Liam: I was shaken awake at about 8:30 in the morning, after a breakfast of muffins and oatmeal and a few minutes of last minute packing, we hit the road at 9:15. I took a nap and when I woke up we were in Eugene dropping Brianna off at her house. We set off once again, our next destination was Medford. When we got to Uncle Owen's house we ate ramen then played basketball. After getting all sweaty we all jumped in the pool. When everyone got tired we came inside to meet Uncle Owen and eat some pizza.

Sean: Throughout the course of this blog I will aim to fill in the gaps that my brothers leave out. Today I think they covered just about everything. Everyone here at Uncle O's house wants us to say hi to all our viewers. We also have to give a special shout out to Nate for coming up with the title of our blog! Also, ive been asked to mention that we invented a new pool game today that involves throwing the ball the length of the pool :)

We are currently having dinner (pizza) and awaiting the arrival of our dear cousin Sarah. The rest of the evening will be filled with card games and desert. We are hoping to get a nice early start tomorrow so we will probably head to bed as early as possible.

Today has been the best day of the trip so far!!
