Portland - Christmas 2008

I haven't had much time at all to write - been so busy at work - that I haven't been able to put up my England pics/videos yet.  Now it's Christmas week and I'm in Portland for 8 days, working very little, and I have time to post!  I'll start with Portland stuff.  Gordon and I were able to make it in on the last flight (landing at 1 pm), before PDX got all iced in.  Knowing we could be stuck inside for a few days, we stopped at Safeway for the necessities such as cupcake mix and nacho fixins.   We got 6+ inches of snow the first day, and another 5+ inches the next....  PLUS a round of freezing rain overnight that put a 1/2" layer of ice on everything.  I'll post more later, but here is a video to start you out...
