Portland, OR


The Spruce Goose!!









What a cool place!! So beautiful and you are an hour from Mt. Hood and an hour from the Ocean! Portland has a great light rail system and is surrounded by 32 volcanoes! Thanks goodness none of them are active. We also read about Mt. St. Helens which doesn't seem like it is inactive at all!

Portland was wild! We went mountain biking, through a corn maze and to a pumpkin weigh in! The growing conditions are perfect in Portland and they grow giant vegetables. And yes, that is a pumpkin smashing a car!

We saw the Spruce Goose too!
