Look ma, we got friends!

Our first visitors! Becky and Francisco (and baby Fin in utero), our friends since the UWEC, visited us at the front and tail end of their West coast vacation. Kind of like a BOGO but without the Payless blisters.

We ventured to Horsetail Falls in the Columbia River Gorge, sampled (devoured) sweets from Saint Cupcake in Portland, walked along Cannon Beach and Hug Point, and tried a couple different takes on Oregon's beloved Macaroni & Cheese. Plus some local beer for good measure.

We were treated to some Kiko-isms, such as adding "f*ckin'" or "god damn", to emphasize just how good something really is - microbrews, chili-burgers, and natural wonders alike. Becky let me touch her tummy in exchange for smoked salmon with cream cheese and a little Brad Pitt (Ocean's 13).

Familiar faces and a little piece of home. It was so f*ckin' good to see them.

I am so grossed out that you used the term "BOGO" in this blog. The End.
