Ok, so we loved Eagle Rock Lodge as mentioned but we got a great B & B in Ashland as well.  The only bad part for you is that it’s not open to the public.  :)   Hubby’s Dad and Wife made us feel like we were at a B&B.  If they ever open for business we will let you know.  They have a beautiful house, that my father-in-law built, on the hill so you would love it!  And guess what my hubby lived there most of his life!

Anyways, I thought I would give you some recommendations of places and things to do while there.  Since we lived there, and hubby grew up there, you can bet these are great places:

- Science Works in Ashland is a lot of fun.  It’s not a big city Science Center, but I think it does a great job and has different themes each time we have gone.

- The Breadboard Restaurant is yummy.  It’s been a favorite of mine for years!  They are open for  breakfast and lunch so be sure to stop on by.

- Four and Twenty Blackbirds Bakery.  YUMMY!!!!  And please try Marionberry!!!

-Paddington Station is a terrific shop in downtown Ashland.  They have everything from kitchen to clothing items and a lot in-between.  It’s a terrific shop!

- All of downtown Ashland is fun to walk around.  It is a little on the hippie side but fun.

- Lithia Parkis a beautiful park just up from downtown Ashland.  You can see the ducks, have a picnic, hike, take the kids to pay in the creek or the playground, and in the winter ice skate.  Really there is too much to mention. 

- Big Town Hero is a nice sandwich shop.  The bread is fresh baked and it’s all ready to be taken to the park for a picnic like we did.

I could go on and on in regards to Southern Oregon.  So…there will be more to come!

Have a “BEAUTIFUL” day!
