What our life is like now...

So we have lived in Portland for 1 month. We like Portland a lot so far. We have library cards already. We have munched on fresh seafood. And we have have seen the sun on three non-consecutive occasions. Some observations:
-Portland drivers drive even slower than Utah drivers
-Portland has more topless bars per capita than any other U.S. city
-Everything is green and wet
-There is no snow and 40 is considered cold
-There is no rhyme or reason to the roads here. Its like they used a 3 year olds crayon sketch as a layout for the city
-Katie loves how green it is and I love the topless bars and all the new places to discover
We have been to the Zoo and the Planetarium and Multnomah Falls and several local restaurants. The city parks here are beautiful because they are literally a forest with trails. Anyone that wants to visit just let us know when.
Here are some pics from the Zoo.



You can see where we live on google earth with these coordinates 45 30'29.16" n 122 45'34.26" w

A cow at the zoo huh? Sounds exotic.

Hey, maybe Christine could send them a few lizards to spice up the zoo.
