My Time in Oregon

November 1st, 2009| by: Phil | Announcements, Photography | No Comments »

I arrived in Oregon at around 35 mph due to the fact that I had a flat in Northern California and a spare tire on my car. I got some new tires and headed to Crater Lake. After a chilly night of camping, I headed up to Crater Lake to take in the view only to be hindered by heavy fog and rain. No big deal…I was able to see the amazingly blue water through the fog anyways. From Crater Lake I headed to Eugene where I drank delicious beer. After Eugene, I drove to Portland without knowing where I would stay…but ended up finding a place through a friend. Being unprepared turned out to be one of the better decisions I’ve made because Portland ended up being one of the most fun places I’ve visited.

My time in Portland involved a lot of exploring, delicious Voodoo donuts, rain, bike riding, a trip to Vanilla Bicycles, way too much time in REI, A secret show in a $2 million house party, carving pumpkins (not shown), and a lot of delicious beer. Special thanks to Nate for letting me stay with him and all his friends for accepting me as a friend for my short time in Portland.

More pictures of Halloween to come.
