Just a normal Joe, living in Portland, trying to do the right thing as I navigate this crazy thing called life.

Pappadeaux

In Houston, eating crawfish for first time. Yes!!

Ft Collins, CO

CooperSmith’s pup, where your IPA comes with a “hop bag” on top!

Woodsman Tavern

Took my sweetie to breakfast at The Woodsman Tavern. Really cool feel to the place. Loved the wood floors, old time light fixtures, and the Patsy Cline playing in the background. The food was really good.

July 4

Look what my wife made! Wow.

Red Hills Market

Out in Oregon wine country today and grabbed this. Fresh sliced highest grade roast beef on artisan bread, covered in caramelized onions and blue cheese crumbles, toasted in a wood fire brick oven. And a cold IPA. Yum!

Hot Lips

Hot day in Portland, and Hot Lips for lunch (plus cold pint)!

Moose’s Tooth

If you think great artisan pizza and handcrafted brews can’t be had outside of Portland’s Hawthorne District, how wrong you would be! Anchorage baby! Moose’s Tooth rocks! Special thanks to the Local Guide I met tonight who was willing to talk to a total stranger in a crazy loud pizza house. Cheers!

Crabby

This rascal is my supper tonight!
