Back Home in NC

Well I'm back home now. Portland was a blast. What a neat city...I really wish I could have spent more time there. The whole city center area is amazing...pedestrian friendly, good public transit, lots of shopping, dining and drinking. Unfortunately didn't get a chance to go out to any clubs there but I certainly hope to visit again in the future.
If you're ever there, I highly recommend the Ace Hotel in downtown, near the Pearl District. Very funky, cute little place.

Off to Portland, OR

Tomorrow afternoon, the bf and I are heading to Portland, Oregon, for the wedding of some friends. Friends who live in New York City, and most of their family are also in New York area...as well as the bulk of their friends. But for some reason they're getting married in Portland, which is like several times as far of a flight. :-P Whee.

But it'll fun...I've never been there. Or anywhere west of Tennessee. So we'll see how that goes.
