Do you have a life?

So, I am beginning to feel like the blog is my own personal journal. Don't any of the rest of you have ANYthing happening in your life?

We are starting to think seriously about our trip to visit Ashleigh in Portland. We have decided not to rent a car and use the public transportation system as much as possible. There are a few things we want to do that may require a one day rental if Ashleigh's car is not available but I am thinking we can do without. One of the things I thought would be fun was a visit to the Leatherman Tool factory for their tour. Imagine my surprise when I found out they only give one tour a week and only 10 people per tour. We are on a wait list but the first opening was the last Wednesday of May. Seems like they might want to add a tour or two.

We are planning on attending the Better Living Show the first weekend we are there. Jim has never been to something like that and I am sure he will find it very enlightening I will be interested to see how it differs from Greenfest which Ashleigh and I attended in Chicago last year. We are also planning on going to the zoo, science museum, several of the local parks and hiking in the Columbia Gorge as well as just exploring the area. I am excited that we are staying so close to the Powell Book Store - reported to be the largest book store in the US. Jim is not so excited about that but he will survive.

Mckenna visited last night and had fun showing us all her new tricks. She is very mobile now. Almost crawling and pulling herself up to the furniture. She loves to play peak-a-boo and watch Gus fetch the ball.

Have a great week.
