Picture Day goes to ... China?

In September 2000 Krys and I went to China, and we have the pictures to prove it! Oh, okay, we didn't go to China, but we did go to the brand spanking-new Chinese garden in downtown Portland, built to rival the Japanese garden in the West Hills. Ancient Asian rivalries, playing out in modern-day America in garden form! The only winners - the gaijin, who get to check both out!

I'll forego commentary and just let the coolness wash over you!







The last picture is Krys and I in our funky house. My mom was visiting, so we were going out to dinner, hence the dress-up. There's our poor dead cat Zoe. She was so cool.

So here's another reason to visit Portland. Yes, I can give you many, many of them. Book your flight today!
