Portland Preview

Time to start thinking about college in the fall. So Katie and I took a road trip to Portland to attend orientation, sign Katie up for classes, and hopefully secure housing (the tv reception is lousy from her car).

But first I needed to educate Katie myself. Once we hit town we headed straight to Knit Purl for Thursday night Knit & Sip. That's knitting and champange if you haven't been there.



Katie got knitting and met the whole gang. Now I feel confident to send her off to the metropolis of Portland, knowing that she knows knitters, she will be ok.



And of course we had to stop in at Mother's for dinner. This trip we corrupted David and Levi, Katie's friends from Ashland. As always, dinner was great and the company quite entertaining.



Now will you look at this fabulous dessert. So beautiful it was worth a picture. And thank you to Levi our wonderful dessert model.
