STL Road Trips to Rainy Portland, Oregon
2009-09-08 05:12:00 Happy Labor Day! STL spent the holiday weekend not working in rainy Portland, Ore. Yesterday, I had breakfast with my better half at the deservedly popular Cadillac Cafe. Since I was on holiday, I focused on my delicious breakfast burrito — not less savory issues of infringement or dilution. This morning we paid a visit to one of Portland’s great brands, Voodoo Doughnut, but the line was way too long for this hungry customer so we went down the block to Stumptown Coffee, another Portland icon. As luck would have it, I snagged their last VOODOO-brand donut and washed it down with a damn fine cup of coffee before heading north.

A Photo Gallery of Homes in Portland, Oregon, known as Nob Hill
2009-09-07 07:00:00 I discovered a little pocket of delightful homes in Portland, Oregon, while on vacation. These homes are located in the Alphabet Historic District in Northwest Portland, dubbed Nob Hill. My husband and I grabbed a long weekend right after the 4th of July and flew to Portland. It's a quick flight, about an hour from Sacramento. Besides touring the sights in Portland, we also walked through a few neighborhoods. I always feel the need to look at real estate, even on vacation. I constantly hear about how progressive Portland is as it's sometimes held up as a model to follow, especially concerning its infill projects and neighborhood developments. I hope you'll be as intrigued as you look through the photo gallery of homes in Nob Hill, the Northwest area of Portland . . . read more about Homes in Portland.

If it snows in July in Oregon, it's probably not the place for me.
2008-12-27 14:03:00 This looks to me like a great idea: have your kids learn to ski, while having all kinds of other fun... in the summer.Learn to ski at summer camp? They can do it with the National Alpine Ski Camp -- a summer program in June, July, and August, that teaches kids how to ski and ski race safely and with a lot of fun. They've taught over 10,000 kids to ski already, and can teach mine, or yours, or anyone's. And they do it in a way that won't have you worrying. Kids are supervised 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and there's a coach for every 6 athletes there, so they can't get into trouble, and they won't want to, because when they're not learning to ski, they're taking part in fun activities like paintball, swimming, hiking, mountain biking, and more. But it's really about the skiing-- they'll learn to ski and have fun doing it, and your little snow bunnies will come back world-class skiers, benefitting from great coaching and video analysis and tips and lots and lots of fun...

Ma Obama si è avvicinato alla nomination ottenendo allo stesso momento la maggioranza assoluta dei delegati eletti in vista della convention di Denver, in Colorado, alla fine di agosto. Come confermato dalla Cnn, il senatore nero ha ora superato il traguardo psicologico dei 1.627 delegati eletti (su un totale di 3.253). Ieri sera, quasi sei mesi dopo, in primavera inoltrata e sotto un cielo stellato, Obama era di nuovo qui per celebrare il momento decisivo verso la conquista della candidatura democratica: "La nomination è a portata di mano". E per ringraziare gli elettori che lo hanno lanciato: "Lo spirito dell'Iowa ha contagiato il Paese".
