Friday: Sauvie Island



In celebration of Nicole's no-school-fridays, we went on yet another adventure... We ended up a bit soggier than expected, but rain is a sure sign of the changing seasons (yay!) Anyway, Sauvie Island was full of cute mailboxes and mad little cows- a perfect combo.
Happy Friday!

French Press Madness



So the other day, in an attempt to reduce both my coffee intake and daily expenditures, I got a wee 12 ounce french press! And what goes perfectly with a 12-oz french press you ask? Stumptown Coffee...Needless to say, I am in heaven. Trust me, I am certainly no coffee snob, i would be content drinking 711 coffee everyday, but once you've had freshly french pressed (or any method, really) Stumptown coffee, well, good luck.
Happy Wednesday!

Back in town







Finally! It feels wonderful to be back! Today, Nicole and I went on a bit of a photo-venture. We ended up finding a beautiful high school right around the corner from our apartment, who knew?? And of course, maximized the coffee intake (in celebration of course)... Travelling
did a number on my body, so I'm playing a hefty game of catch-up..
Hope it was a wonderful weekend for you and yours!

California Round Two






I've been enjoying a second small little trip out to the hometown, and i must apologize for being spacy for the last few days... BUT I promise i have been snapping away with all intentions of updating, but unfortunately my computer is in Portland, and im working on a computer that freezes every second or two...
Anyway, today was a peaceful morning.. I went down to the ocean at 6AM and sat on the jetty watching the waves crash around me... Good ol' ocean therapy.
cheers
