    From the south it is ugly. Not so bad on the north side of town.

    I'm heading back from Eugene to Boise next week. Guess which route I plan to take? Hint: not the McKenzie pass.

    Actually, I did grow up here. Hence coming to lay Mom to rest. But...drove an international scout with a ford block and a winch and a deer guard. Whole different ball game.

    It's closed for the Winter. Trust me a truck doesn't belong on that road ever.
