UMTravels

An overcast morning here at the beach. Coffee and a banana for pre-breakfast. Corn waffles for the main breakfast.

The plan is to leave after lunch to head south. Portland here I come (well, in a bit).

More later as the day progresses.

Good thing I left the canal early…. got across the Washington/Oregon border at 4pm and didn’t the Otterwinkles until a little after 5pm. Solid traffic.

Opened the Scotch and got a tour of the house before heading off to Starky’s for dinner with Ticker (who is looking oh so swelt these days). Had the Reuben, should have had the salad, but at least there was the after dinner excursion to the Alberta Street Meat Market (OK – it was a street fare, but there was lots of fine meat on the sidewalks).

Afterwards got the tour of the QLand House — guess it’s a Gay Group House Cum Community Center — haven’t quite figured that out yet. But the walk did me good, thought the Reuben was still weighing heavily on me. Not sure how Mr. Stomach is going to take this load.

Home for lots of water (to cut the salt in the Reuben and the Onion Rings). The Otterwinkles and Leo and Mad/Bad Dog are hanging out on the terrace lounge chatting into the evening. Life is good.

Note to self: include pictures of the people I mention (request from Ticker).
