This morning we went to the Market Place in Portland, OR (just across the river) where they have artisans of all sorts selling their wares. Music, food and art. I ate an "authentic" Mexican taco, YUM, and we had some great coffee. The highlight of the morning was entertainment by street performer, Sash, who swallowed his knife while juggling and escaped from a strait-jacket entwined in chains all with a sardonic sense of humor (using an eastern european accent.)
"SASH" (I wonder if the accent was part of the act!)
After returning from the Portland market we walked to the Farmer's Market in Vancouver. The public park here is fantastically green. I'm enthralled by these huge pines! I know it rains a lot here but, geez, it's so wonderfully green and lush. Anyway, we enjoyed bought 5 pounds of tomatoes for the trip back. (We have to start thinking about that, now!) We've been enjoying the conference discussions, panels and lectures but now I think we're ready to head on to something different.
