You were one of the first here that I looked forward to seeing what you had to say as we rolled on down the road, path, trail, etc.

I'm back home now.

Not much air distance difference between NYC and Philly, but I actually arrived on the train from Seattle. Nice ride.

I'm still absorbing what a bikey town Portland is. There were hordes of people roaming the streets, so to speak. And there are so many key industry people and companies! Some good food, too. I was skeptical that the pizza would be good, and it is.

Good pizza? NYT named Beaverton’s Happa Pizza one of the 22 best pizza places in the US. And the NYT should know from pizza.
