@@eileennovak1656thanx much. It is rather rare to find old-growth like that right there within Eugene's city limits ... and downtown! Perhaps some more on the U of O campus (Pioneer Cemetery?), Spencer's Butte and up at Hendricks Park.
I wonder if Ken Kesey who wrote One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest was inspired by the name of this house to name his protagonist Mcmurphy. The story takes place in Oregon I believe. Mcmurphy was of course brilliantly portrayed in the film by Jack Nicholson.
@melanie4354 Very possibly! Ken Kesey lived just west of Eugene in the town called Veneta. I think that is where the original "Furthur" is permanently parked.
Damn, beautiful old-growth trees. ty
btw- great vid, and very interesting
