My first weekend in Portland (in nearly a month) without any type of work commitment....and I let loose! I didn't want to be home. We had sun and warmth and I was on a mission to enjoy. Dolce and I did lots of walking in our neighborhood Pearl District. Most of the restaurants I mention are located in the Pearl. Its a great walking district...lots to do and lots to see. I purchased two fun new books from Powell Books. They have a great online store - check it out. I believe they are the largest used and new bookstore anywhere. A trip to Sephora was included as was a cosmo and appetizers from Bluehour. We were out and about all weekend, but the highlight, watching the Yankees come from behind to beat the Dodgers on Sunday evening. I've even included a photo of my four favorite Yankees....Happy Monday!
