1. Wow--that is awesome!
I don't live in Portland, but have been an "Oregonian" for almost 50 years. (Spouse smuggled me across the border from Washington State, but he's a native, so figured I was legal.) I've lived all over the state, but the years near Portland were among the most fun and interesting. So far I've missed Voodoo Donuts but some day I'll get there! Congrats on making the most of your "Portland Saga". Hope you can make it back some day, and check out some of the other fantastic scenery and events in our awesome state. You're always welcome here!
Cheers! ![]() |

2. Thanks. I spent 4 days in Seattle, 7 in Olypmic National Park, and a day and half in Portland.
I know Seattle like the back of my hand but hadn't spent much time in Portland. DU is a great resource and I look forward to heading back.

3. Sounds like you
had a great trip here! That is a lot to pack in for a day and a half. Isn't Powell's the best? I love that place.
