Oregon -> Day Two

I promise the blogs are not going to be daily forever, but probably will be for the first few weeks.

We went to this awesome bar for happy hour but it was reeeeeally pack, but they did have an absolutely amazing view of the city. (It was on the 30th floor of the tallest building in Portland, it better right?)

Things we learned today...
The Willamette River is pronounced: wil-am-it, not wil-uh-met like we had thought.
Couch St. is pronounced coo-ch not cow-ch like the thing you sit on in your den. hmph! We are still trying to figure out if they use different words for the street and the furniture.
If you have ever said "ya'll" you will always say "ya'll." Apparently it is one of those words you don't lose, even if you lose your accent.
Portland Beavers are the AAA baseball team that are the affiliate of the Padres (for you nonbaseballers... Richmond Braves to Atlanta Braves as Portland Beavers are to San Diego Padres)...BUT don't be fooled, there are also Oregon State University Beavers. And University of Oregon Ducks... AND beavers and ducks in the Oregon Zoo... pretty confusing, huh?

Goodnight Richmond. Thanks for stopping by!

Love,
Your new half beaver - half ducks... just kidding we will only be half redskin - half tiger!!
