Portland rocks socks! -2009-




these photos are from a trip i took last year to portland, or. i only spent a few days there, but the beauty of the place was breathtaking. of course, i also went in june when the weather is usually at its most behaved. the roses at the international rose test garden were in full bloom, and the skies were a bright, clear blue... though there was the one day it rained in the typical winter weather portland is known for. the walking tours are great to do and really help an out-of-towner gain their bearings for around the town plus the history of the city is so fascinating! the street kids running around were.. interesting [?] to watch, even if they are lil trust fund babies with nice families somewhere, and i'm pretty sure i either saw a dead homeless man as i was riding the RTD or it was a man who likes to celebrate the middle of the workweek a bit too much. another homeless was trying to wake him or steal his bottle...


BUT, overall, it was a nice vacation with lots of new sights and experiences. -i never got to see the ocean. -
