Venata? Isn't that where the Country Fair is held?
My son went years ago and many bare breasted young ladies.
I stopped at the Shell gas station a couple of months ago, coming back from Peace Harmony Hosp., and the attendant/cashier fumed at how the young ladies wander out of the fair into public where her kids had to witness the nudity ticked her off.
My son enjoys visiting the off campus area when he goes to Peace Harmony.
The bookstore puts out conservative as well a liberal books on display.
It is not as hippie like as it was when we moved to Oregon 15 years ago.
Or so it seems.
No, it's definitely getting better. We have a new police chief who's bent on getting the fair cleaned up, and he's been doing a pretty good job of it. I've never gone, myself, but I hear there's still plenty of nudity and crack to go around...to be fair, however, it isn't nearly as widespread as it used to be. And the UO has gotten in trouble for being so liberal, and is making an effort...even if it is forced, it's a start.
