No Snivelling

I made a quick dash to Portland yesterday to have lunch with Aunt Jeannine and Lynn, take advantage of the sales tax benefit to buy some luggage and shoes, and meet up with a Wharton classmate, who founded a company that runs the loyalty/stored value card businesses for the likes of Subway, Quiznos and more... very excititng stuff! It was a great little trip -- I always forget how nice Portland is, and also how similar it is to Seattle -- it is a beautiful small city, on water, with great little neighborhoods, restaurants, and plenty of music and art. Plus, 'family' in the area is always a plus! I could definitely live there.

We had lunch at a Portland hallmark, Huber's -- I had the Turkey (their trademark), and I think Jeannine may have had a few of their Spanish Coffees :)
