Patrick,
Thanks for the post! I have been here since Wednesday night now (writing this in the coffee shop of Powell’s). I saw most of the city on Thursday including Tanner Springs Park. Did a tour of the Bridgeport Brewery, which was really awesome. Not only do they brew award winning beer…they do it sustainably!!! Last night we headed out to the coast. Spent the morning around Astoria and then did some great hikes around Cannon Beach and Saddleback mountain. Just made it back into Portland about 30 minutes ago. We are planning to hit up the Gorge tomorrow morning. I am pretty stoked…its so beautiful out here!
Anyway, my friend is going to be parting ways with me tomorrow evening, so I would love to take you up on that invitation to grab a beer. Ill message you with my contact info so we can try to hook up.
Peace!
