A day in the big city (don’t laugh)
I don’t know if you know this, but Portland is cool, and we need to spend more time there. We had the whole day to play, but it was cold and raining ice pellets, so walking around wasn’t really an option. I mean, we still stayed all day (we got home just a few minutes ago, a little after 10), but we drove from place to place and dashed from store to store. We had brunch at Gravy, which was SO GOOD, and then we went to this synthesizer store so John could play with all the toys, and then we went to a used music store so John could try out other toys, and then we went BACK to the synth store so John could buy the toys he was playing with earlier, then a quick stop at a comic book shop, the Doc Martens store (the original one!) where John found shoes that actually fit (!), Athleta for me (where I tried on everything in the store, of course), and POWELL’S.
And then we came home. I could sleep for days.
