Let's just move on now and address near steps off the mortal coil at another time.

For...there's pictures to look at, which is more pleasant for all, I'd think.

I fell in love - with a city (and with some good design). A wish came true for a special treat - I stayed at the Ace Hotel in Portland.


Fantastic location. The city matched the fog I was in, but I felt strangely comfortable there.


The lobby was excellent to hang out in.


The Stumptown coffee was some of the best I've had.


My room was very cool, and I wanted so badly to bring home a wool blanket for a practical souvenir.


The Eames shell chair came with the room, the Pumas and flipflops came with the traveler.
