Our condo has been subjected to a couple of water damages within a very short period of time. This time, it came from the 12th floor and went all the way down to Target! Apparently hundreds of gallons of clean toilet water had flowed unchecked, since the 12th floor unit was unoccupied. What a disaster! Dad, Grandma Joanne, Ev, her kids and my kids and I stayed there one night and decided the combination of the heat, lack of space, and very loud 24 hour dryers made for a pretty unpleasant stay. We therefore changed our travel plans and made a detour to Portland for the weekend. It was fun!

 |
| We bused over to Montlake and Wilson and Stacey's house to meet my mom for dinner. |

| Huge vent in our bathroom |
 |
| Evening time. They removed about half our floor and it's down to concrete. The dryers are very loud. We had to shout loud to hear each other. And the fans created a ton of heat so we weren't able to keep the place lower than 85-90 degrees even with the a/c on. They moved our washer/dryer in to the living room. So much work.... |

| Like mother like son. |
 |
| Crumpet shop! |
 |
| We rode the Big Wheel. |

| Christian captured a ton of photos of this hilarious squirrel that was getting food from the garbage can. He got so close to the squirrel I was afraid the squirrel would jump right on him. |
 |
| Today we went to all these fun places in Portland: Adidas employee store, Columbia employee store, and H&M. Here we are at Columbia. Got some nice items like a ski coat for Olin, a Timbers jersey for Christian, and some new running shoes for me from Adidas, among other things. |
 |
| Lunch at Pioneer Place mall. |
 |
| Photos Mal took at Madison Park in Seattle. |
 |
| And then she used an App to create this funny 'studio photo'. haha. |
