I spent the weekend in Portland Oregon visiting a good friend of mine Pamela Francisco. We spent the weekend away from technology (other than my camera) and it was absolutely fantastic. Portland has amazing coffee and food culture, along with a lot of wineries.
I so want to visit Portland. Maybe next summer!! Looks a lot like Minnesota in the summer. LKay
