Travel: 3 Days in Portland
Spending three days in Portland is one of the highlights of the year. Thus far, anyway.

Let’s check out some of the posts about our recent trip to this awesome city in Oregon. Three Days in Portland First, where we stayed.

Travel: Portland Eats
Portland eats. It’s time to eat in Portland! Being a celiac it’s sometimes hard to find the perfect dive bar with good food. The White Owl Social Club is just that – gluten free friendly.

Travel: Portland Market
The Portland Market, well the Saturday Market. It’s open on Saturdays from March until the end of December.

Travel: Space Needle Seattle
The Space Needle Seattle has been an attraction I’ve wanted to visit ever since I watched The Jetson’s in 1987. Elroy is so cool. The neat part about visiting the Space Needle is when you walk in you walk up this huge ramp and it’s full of retro themed photos – even The Jetson’s! Basically, it’s like a little museum. We had City Passes, which means we visited twice – once during the day and again at night. If you’re only going to make one…
