So it turns out that weather cat contest I posted about yesterday started because they used to have Bob the Weather Cat who was super famous (probably just in Portland) and was even on the cover of National Geographic World and some lady found old pictures of Bob and sent them to the studio. Bob is awesome. I love Bob.

I must admit that on clear days I have a pretty nice view from my place.

America’s New Food Mecca: Welcome to Portland

I have had so much delicious (and CHEAP!!) food during my 2 months here in Portland. It really is true that whether you are working or not, everyone goes out to eat. I love that I can afford to explore the city and am constantly pleasantly surprised when the bill comes. I still giggle sometimes with how low it is compared to what I would have got for the same price in Los Angeles. Heck! It would have cost the price of the meal, plus beer, just to park somewhere in LA! Yay Portland! I’m so happy you are my new home.

How cute is my new mail carrier signing the tenant update card with a smiley face?

I wish this picture did the sky justice because the sunrise on my walk to the bus stop this morning was GORGEOUS. Think 10x more brilliant! And I am pretty sure that is Mt. Hood in the distance.

It’s raining it Portland so I’ve been looking at rain boots all day. I think I need to upgrade to a pretty plaid pair. Or maybe a fair isle one? Any favorites?
