Courthouse

Our family trip today was to the new federal courthouse in Eugene, named after the late Oregon Senator Wayne Morse. It is a state-of-the-art courthouse that combines aesthetic grace, energy efficiency, and technological functionality. One can tell the architects considered the needs of the judges, attorneys, jurors, court staff, and others when designing the courthouse.

Then we headed to the 5th Street Public Market for lunch and window shopping. Afterward, we visited friends and went for ice cream. After saying our good-byes, we drove back home but stopped off at the Wilsonville Family Fun Center to let the kids take a break from the drive. Once back on the road, it was nearing dinner time, so we stopped off at Sweet Tomatoes. After dinner, we finally got back home. This was another full day of family fun.
