Goodbye for now, Oregon!

Sorry I've been a little lax with the blogging. I had a great time in Portland. I met many nice people and made a few contacts as well. I may need to plan another trip in the near future when funds allow but for now I'm just left with fond memories. I'll post more pictures of my trip here in this blog and I also would like to thank Jay, Angela and the baby for their fine hospitality. You guys are the best!

Greetings from Portland


Hey there! I just spent my first full day in Oregon and I have to say, its the greenest place I've ever been. I may never leave. The weather is a cool 73 degrees with no humidity. The people are friendly and very warm, and there is a lot of interesting things to draw and paint here. I have a beautiful view of Mt. Hood from where I'm staying and decided to do a quick watercolor study just to stay busy. I may touch it up later in PS or maybe not.
Tonight my friend and I are heading downtown to see a band and to meet up with his coworkers. and tomorrow I start looking for a job. I think that Portland agrees with me. I've only been here a day or so but feel I could really get used to it here.

I'll check back in again in a few days.
