Donuts. Simple pleasure. Just saying so. This stand in Pike Street Market never fails to satisfy. Who wouldn't enjoy sugar on fat on starch :)
Thank you for humbling me dear brother. So, in summary, I believed (note the past tense) that having 5 years behind me of boarding, not being afraid to fall, experiencing a variety of conditions, etc. would make it easy to keep up with my bro who is relatively new to the sport. Not so, I was SCHOOLED....and was sore for several days...but happy! What else...good lunch...still want to post the picture, Sharad...why did I say I wouldn't? :) Again!
Breitenbush Hot Springs Retreat is quite a place to bring in the new year. A spa more than a few miles off the grid in a nearly self-sufficient community with it's own power plant, gardens, etc. Pure bountiful organic meals. No caffeine. Lots of time to read. No wifi. Best massage of a lifetime....no exaggeration. Lots of classes available for practices/exercise of the mind and body that I can't pronounce nor know if I they are compatible with my routine or convictions. Curious though!
What else...enjoying hot springs on a cold night with clear sky feels right. Though seeing a flashlight bobbing toward you while you're sitting in the hotsprings on a cold night with clear sky makes you feel a bit vulnerable.
So, this isn't a good picture, but is a recommendation if you find yourself near Portland to find The Grilled Cheese Grill. Ridiculously satisfying grilled sandwiches. Would appeal to anyone who is a foodie and has enough character to dine on a bus.
Overall an excellent time to catch up with my long lost friend, Amy. Excellent time.
