Cascadia Trip Accumulation
Stuff we acquired on our trip to Portland, Oregon, with a stop in Seattle, Washington.
Overland Equipment Auburn bag.
The Alexander Technique by Richard Brennan
Two maps of Powell's City of Books in Portland.
Boost Your Brain Power
U.S. stamps for mailing postcards.
Various TriMet maps, passes and info. From right to left: three maps, a comic in Spanish, and a bike rider's guide. The five passes are: one bus transfer, two weekly passes, and two "honored citizens" passes Richard rescued from the trash.
Seattle SoundTransit transit guide.
Two free Portland bridges bookmarks. That beat paying $19 for the poster of the same bridges.
4 Amtrak ticket stubs for the train trips we took from Portland to Seattle, then from Seattle to Vancouver.
Artist postcard from gallery in the Pearl District.
Pumpkin Butter with Port, from the "Made in Oregon" store.
Spiced hazelnuts with cinnamon and pepper. I talked to the man who makes them at the People's Co-op Farmer's Market. It was chilly. (The weather at the market, not the man!)
"Dreaming Escape", a book of poems translated from Albanian.
Greeting cards from Positively Green
Seattle Art Museum tickets to Life, LIberty and the Pursuit of Happiness. We stumbled on it on our way to a concert, donated in the wrong box, plead our case, and got in as the result of the donation.
Our little big purchase: the Flip MinoHD, with a custom design that I commissioned from @idleglory (flickr: rocketcandy).
2 rolls of film from the Fisheye camera, ISO 400 and ISO 200.
Notebooks and a Jane Austen address book, also from Powell's.
Apple Cider, obtained from the Farmer's Market.
Bridges of Portland fridge magnet.
Art gallery opening card from Moshi Moshi.
The poster for Duncan Sheik's 2009 winter tour for Whisper House and Spring Awakening. We attended his shows in Portland and Seattle.
Ticket stub from the Portland show (see poster note below).
Artist postcard from gallery in the Pearl District.
Skirt purchased from The Future Inc., which closed this past Saturday.
An "Oregon Wilderness" postcard, the outlier of the 8 we sent in total to our American and Canadian friends on this trip.
Apple Cinnamon Tea from Pike Place Public Market in Seattle. The entire kitchen smells like this tea now.
If we were to do a Wordle of our notes, I think it would show the essential highlights of our trip: music, Powell's, food, a bit of planner-ness, some art, and transit.
You two are too cute. :)
