Dayna had the Friday off on the Remembrance day long weekend
off, so when she got home from work on Thursday night we headed to Portland for
a couple of days. It’s a 6 hour drive
down to Portland. I was able to use my
La Quinta points to get us a room for a couple of nights. We did some shopping and visited an old
Asylum turned into and brewery/ distillery.
In the evening we headed to downtown Portland to walk around and visit a
few more brew pubs. Portland is home to
many microbreweries. The next day we
drove to the coast to visit Lincoln city and up the coast to Seaside. We spent 2 nights in Seaside relaxing and
visiting Canon Beach. Peter and Sandy
also came to Seaside on a different vacation for Sandy’s Birthday, so on the
last night we all went out for Dinner. It was great to have four days of to relax.

When we got home it was time to tare down the wall between
our kitchen and dinning room. I have wanted
to do this since I first walked into the house. It is so much better, i can't even picture what it used to look like. Here are some photos on the work. I just put on the final coat of mud
(hopefully).
