To make up for the lengthy entry yesterday we will try to condense today as best we can. Woke up and helped Catherine pick out a grill at Home Depot before grocery shopping for the afternoon’s BBQ. Set up new grill in backyard and prepped food before visitors showed up. Biked around for way too long looking for spatula and tongs we had neglected to pick up at Home Depot. Ate. Drank. Met more great Portland people before biking down to the riverfront to catch the fireworks. Robbie got ahead of the group and got lost among the thousands of fireworks spectators. Without a cell phone he biked in circles and retraced his steps before deciding to head home. Astonishingly, Beth walked out of a Thai restaurant that let her use the bathroom (emergency status) to find Robbie waiting at a traffic light. Met up with cool people from the cookout and went to bars and a place called Voodoo Donuts that specializes in things such as a maple donut with bacon on top and huge bear claws with peanut butter and coco puffs. Biked home. The end. Happy Fourth.
Pictures to come...
