Intentions

Welcome; the intention is to tell a little about my whereabouts, travel adventures, and issues at Elk Ridge, including when I will be on the ranch, when a great time to visit (send grandchildren), etc. Hopefully there will be different divisions for Travel, Ranch Activities, etc.

Oregon Travel

OK; we've just returned to the hotel in Portland after a nice day and evening in Portland!
This morning Susan, Era Cherry, Greg Cherry, and his lady friend Myrna (from Atlanta) all went down town and had a nice breakfast (I had Lox and Bagel on Cream Cheese,etc)..yum! Then we went to the Saturday Open Market (kind of a glorified 4th Ave thing in Tucson...) and I really didn't see too much there of interest. Then, however, we went across the street to attend the Annual Beer Fest here in Portland. This event was really fun, quite interesting. People from all over the US and Europe attended, and you could sample lots and lots of different beers. Was a fun time!
We then headed back to the hotel, rested a bit, got cleaned up, then headed over to Karen and Brian's place for the wedding. Had to admit, had my doubts after last night's "rehearsal", but it turned out real nice. The back yard setting w the small pond and fountain, the stream, and lighting all made for a beautiful setting. Brian looked very handsome in his vest and nice outfit, and Karen was beautiful. It was presided over by John ..., a pastor from Grant's Pass who knows the family, and the ceremony was very nice. We wish them all the best. Susan and I just said "good-night" to Gregg and Myrna, and then Era . We will see Era here @ breakfast and then I guess we will make a spot visit back to Karen and Brian's before we go on our way. Don't have any idea how to put some pics up because Inger didn't show me how....Love to all, DAD
