We’re headed to verdant Portland, Salem and the Oregon Coast this week to visit Ian’s lovely grandmother and family. Though his home state and a neighboring one to California at that, I’ve only driven through on a (roundabout) trip from here to Michigan. Since long overdue, we’ll be sure to document our exploration here.

On that note, we’ve been given a must-see lists of places from Jess, but if you have any recommendations, do tell.

To PDX we go!
