9/3/06 Portland OR

We arrived in Portland after an 8 hr drive fill of World Cup Soccer and Madden games. Lots of complaining about PS2 glitches and luck involving the computer wanting one team to win. Aaron and JD are ready to set off the 2007 Madden season, Aaron(Rams) JD (Falcons). We stayed at a shady hotel outside of Portland where the towels were brown and yellow, the air was stale and the clientele we country cousins. We decided to head into town and hit up a great spot we highly recomend called Henry's. The food happy hour is amazing, pizzas, sushi, burgers etc for under $3. After sampling a few beers our table was approached by some attractive young ladies to inform Vagabond that he was "beatutiful", needless to say he was occupied for the rest of the evening so the rest of us sampled Moose Drool, Youngs Chocolate Stout(highly recomended), Rogue Shakespeare Stout. Ricky and Vagabond ended up driving around downtown Portland in a white Range Rover with the girls from Henry's bumping Damien Marley hitting some suspect clubs, and getting dropped off early in the morning. Late night World Cup sessions led to some heated exchanges, but there were some other exchanges going on that paled in comparison. Couldn't wait to get out of there in the morning to head to Coeur D'Alene ID.
