We arrived in Portland and what an unusual and funky place. Lots of homeless people, though, and we saw a row of tents pitched on the highway right of way, maybe a hundred, sort of a homeless camp. There were lots of pan handlers and forlorn and lost looking young people. We saw a group of protestors in a park, who apparently were against placing a pipeline on the Indian Reservation. I took a photo. We saw the original Doc Marten studio and the original Whole Foods! Finally we found Powell's bookstore, which is the largest bookstore in the country, maybe even the world! It consists of 4 stories and has any book you could ever want to read. I snagged a book that Nancy recommended, the latest Walt Longmire saga, "An Obvious Fact" which takes our heroes to Sturgis during the Harley Davidson throw down. Traveling from Portland to Newport, OR, which is on the coast, we saw lots of farms and vineyards, lots of canopy over the road, really a scenic drive. I couldn't get the book picture to rotate, sorry.
