So - you are planning to visit us here in Portland, Oregon. First of all - we actually live in Tualatin. It is a suburb of Portland about 10 or so miles down I-5 south of the city. We used to live in NE Portland, but the commute to work for Brian and the cost of houses within Portland pushed us out. The closest house with all the features we wanted was found in Tualatin.
So once you arrive - either by plane and the Portland International Airport, or by train at Union Station, or by the Interstate Highway System - we've got to figure out what you want to do. The opportunities are endless! So - here is the first in a series of posts about some of our favorite things to do. Make a list of the ones you like
A favorite of young and old alike - the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry - is never called that. It goes by the name of OMSI.
OMSI has so many fun things to do - you should just go to their website and read about them. One of the added attractions is a tour of the USS Blueback. This is a real submarine floating out in the Willamette River. This sub was used in the movie The Hunt for Red October. Do you recognize it?
During the fall of 2007, Linda Maytan came out for a visit and we toured the sub.
Connor even got to drive!
