A 2 Vending

Getting a glimpse of nature doesn't have to be just plants and trees. See it come to life when you visit the Silver Creek Landing. You will have the opportunity to enjoy the outdoors and watch the wildlife that's located at the Silver Creek public boat ramp. A viewing platform is just a short walk away, and you'll be able to overlook the McKenzie River where you'll catch sight of osprey, waterfowl, beaver and deer, among other interesting species.

When you dig deep, you never know what you'll find. Getting below the surface of history and cultural traditions will allow you to gain a deeper understanding, and there's no better place to do that in Eugene than at the University of Oregon Museum of Natural and Cultural History. Here, the past is present in so many colorful and multidimensional ways. You'll be able to experience an amazing 15,000 years of Oregon's cultural history as well as an equally stunning 200 million years of geology. Get ready, because the trip is a dramatic one, with adventure at nearly every turn.

Escape without having to go too far when you plan to spend a little romantic time together on a date at Hendricks Park. This is Eugene's oldest city park and it offers several natural amenities that will make your time together quite memorable. Over its sprawling 78 acres, the two of you will find a mature forest to marvel at, a highly-recognized rhododendron garden to admire, and several winding trails on which to stroll casually hand in hand.

If you're searching for something truly fresh for your table but don't want to have to hassle with the local supermarket, let the Lane County Farmers Market in Eugene come to your rescue. You'll find the freshest fruits and vegetables as well as various other types of baked breads and tasty treats that will put a smile on the face of everyone who has the privilege of sitting at your table.
