Our daughter had tracked us down and encouraged
us to come a day early so we would have an extra day
in Portland. I am so glad we did too. We were busy people
doing all of our fun activities. I did not take very many photographs. I did not want the distraction of the camera.
We were downtown a few times.
"Cave of Forgotten Dreams."
I did not care for the 3d filming but I love the subject!
I was so excited when I found the silver slug pins.
One for me and one for my daughter.
She made mine a felted leaf to rest on when I am not wearing it.
She just whipped this darling up while we were playing cards.
She is fast and so talented.
"Two please."
She taught me to love them too.
Amazing library.
painted our own pottery.
We drank wonderful coffee, ate delicious meals, played cribbage,
and had so much fun.
The camera was called for when spiderlings were located.
We did our Fossil hunting
at the Fossil Cartel.
I bought my rock tumbler!
This is something I have wanted for years.
Many independent shop keepers and restaurateurs
help to keep the city on the cutting edge.
I am making a travel journal for next year's trip using
brown paper sacks for pages and this fabric
for my cover.
This city is an artist dream come true.
I am always inspired!
We had to leave before the festival began.
We had reserved a house on the beach in California.
We had so much fun. I have few photographs of Portland, Oregon
from this trip but I have thousands of happy memories.

It is good that you were able to concentrate on your daughter. So many fond memories were made.
Dear Lisa,
We had a wonderful time.
Sometimes I just want the "everyday way"
when I visit my daughter. The camera has a way of getting in the way....
