The Oregon Trail

hearts will mend on the open road

Rain, Coffee, Computers, Thunder and Lighting August 18, 2008

We woke up to lighting outside our 22nd floor window.  It was actually thunder that woke me up, not an alarm.   Pretty cool.

 

Just went for a quick walk up to the Pearl District.  Decided to walk back and get the car so that we could do a driving tour of Portland.  We have yet to see the whole city.  

 

Our Barista’s name was Matt and he was really nice.  He says Portland is a city of refugees and fugitives.  He made a really cool flower in my cup with the foam, so I figured he was someone to pay attention to.

 

Darcie and I are quickly seeing how needed Jesus is in the cities.
