An amazing trip to Portland, OR to visit good friends, relax, be inspired, and recharged. There was an epic amount of food, laughing, restaurant browsing, and window shopping at some of the smartest retail outlets I've ever been to.

I didn't think it was possible, but Portland lived up to the hype. I am scheming ways to get back there next summer, as August is really the best time to escape Austin for a cooler climate.
