Richard's day off

This past Monday, on Richard's day off, we decided to drive to Portland, which is only 20 minutes away. It was a beautiful day out, clear skies and in the high 60's. We parked downtown and went into Powell's Bookstore, walked down 23rd Ave. and got bagels and coffee and walked around the nearby neighborhoods. The trees were so pretty and the houses in the neighborhood were all decorated for Halloween. Downtown Portland is a normal big city with a bunch of tall buildings, but the neat thing about it is that it also has lots of trees and a river running through it.

We thought this was funny, "Rich's; Cigars, Magazines and Gifts". Maybe he'll take it over one day.
