From Boise I took off and went to Portland, Oregon. I haven’t been back there since October 2019. I had planned on coming back more often but then Covid happened and … travel was put on hold.

I got there Dec 3rd and left the 14th so had almost two weeks home!! I ended up staying at many different homes and seeing so many great friends and family. And what’s a homecoming without going to ALL the favorite restaurants. I had a list and we hit them ALL. It was fantastic. Great food, with great friends!!

The snow seemed to follow me there for a bit - I had snow in Seattle, snow in Boise followed by unusual snow in Portland! It made it very pretty tho.

I have six little “great nieces and nephews” - most didn’t even remember me since they were so young when I moved away, so it was wonderful to get to know them now that they’re older!Read more
