Recruiting is brutal. It was hot and her recruiting chair didn't have an umbrella. I think the school needs to buy her a chair with an umbrella. And a big bottle of Patron Tequila.

Pacific City to Portland
We left our great VRBO in Pacific City this morning, but last night we watched the sun set into the ocean (which is unusual for us East Coasters who only see the sun rise over the ocean.)

Portland. Day 1

Greetings from Portland, OR
The sun is shining and there are roses blooming on the bushes beside the deck here. What? Roses? The day before Thanksgiving???!! I’ll take it! It was a long day of flying yesterday. Elmira to Detroit. Here I am sipping a Chai Latte in the Detroit airport, still smelling fresh, looking good. And then … Continue reading Greetings from Portland, OR
