Mt. Hood to Portland






Today is the day we see 'The Kids' :)
We woke up at Mt. Hood Village RV Park, after such a peaceful night.
Just beautiful ! Mark took the bikes off the rack and we had a nice morning bike ride,
a bit chilly at first....49 degrees when we headed out ~ Can you say "ReFrEsHiNg " ?
We hit the road to Portland about 10 am....Met Daniel downtown at Lloyd Center, left
the RV there and headed with him to Tasty and Sons...yum-0 !
There we met Maya and Anthony. We had a nice long brunch...some amazing foods
Like: A Tasty Muffin : Tasty muffin with fried egg, pickled beets, heirloom tomato, beecher's
cheddar cheese, red onion and mixed greens :)
Everyone had to get to work, we said good bye and would meet up tonight. Take Maya to
Daniel's place for dinner.
So, off to our RV to check in to our "home" for the week....Janzten RV Park at Janzten Beach.
We are in spot #928 :) (like our Area code)
Got settled and hung out, took a walk, also checked out the Home Depot that is within walking distance... Mark got everything he needed to wash the truck and RV windows :)
We left at about 6:45 to head to Dan and Maya's to go with Maya to Lovely's Fifty Fifty.
Our reservation was at 7:45.
Saw Dan at the Salad station. Happy guy !
What a wonderful place....very busy too.
We ordered a Margherita Pizza half with sausage. Mark and I shared a Romaine Salad with Cesar dressing and fresh parmesan cheese. Delish !
For Maya....what ever Dan decided to 'send her way' . At one point she went back to where he was working and put her hand on a fresh peach and said "This is mine"...soooo what did he do? He quartered the peach and made this wonderful dish for her ! Oh my !
We had fresh ice cream too. I had Blackberry Buttermilk. Maya and Mark had the soft serve Salted Carmel and Milk Chocolate...it was wonderful !
Maya drove us back to their house ...it was after 10pm we decided to head to the RV and
go to bed. Soooo full soooo tired !

  1. What a great day. Sounds wonderful, especially the weather. Phoenix had another dust and wind storm yesterday. Lots of damage. 40 telephones down and lots of live wires. Been breezy most of the day here and hot as heck (as usual). Enjoy the coolness...... :-)
