Portland, Oregon

Spent a nice relaxing quick 4 day vacation in Portland, Oregon for my B-Day.  It was good to get away.  The city is a great getaway with a fantastic book store.  A store that covers an entire city block that is up to 4 stories high.  It is magical place for booklovers.


Portland is also a great place to drink good be
er.  Since 80% of the US hops is grown in the Portland area I guess IPAs have to be some of the freshest.  Bridgeport has a nice little tour and some great beers.

Portland has a triple A club...the Beavers...who are the farmclub for the Padres.  Nice little stadium been around since 1905.

Did some site seeing went to the Portland Art Museum.  Nice little museum.  Some interesting pieces.  I liked the following and Linda Connor's photograph of a moonbeam and star trails.
And finally a nice touch with our hotel room...
