It's a Deck of a day!
I wanted to give everyone an update on the WTF (Where’s the Flamingo International Tour 2016) since arriving in Portland Oregon just over a week ago. I arrived at my friends, Jan and Nate’s house on Friday evening and enjoyed a nice evening together briefly before everyone headed of for some much needed sleep and me to stretch my back after enduring about 2.5 hours of zero to twenty miles an hour drive through Seattle (reminded me of Atlanta and why I headed to Alaska). I have other friends here in Portland I would like to see and spend some time with, Colin and Donna-Lee who I had a great time with in Mexico last Oct/Nov during several celebrations on that trip. Saturday we headed up toward Mt. Hood, their bee boxes, the bar they own, The Whistle Stop Bar and Grill, and to participate in an annual event called “The Bite at Mt. Hood” a charity event where local vendors prepare food for the guests while both a silent and live auction are held raising money for local charities.
