{Photo Journal} Rhode Island, Good Eats & Spring

I was excited to get a few pictures from Alex this week while he is Rhode Island for Officer candidate school. It’s a game of “Where’s Alex” in the first photo (second back 4th row from the right). Glad to see he didn’t spend all of his time marching and studying! He finally returns to Portland on Friday and I can’t wait!

And what have I been doing to keep my self entertained? Seems like lots of eating!! Highlights include this thin-crust take and bake pizza from Papa Murphy’s… shockingly good! And a trip to one of my favorite places Salt & Straw where you get to experience ice cream, Portland style. If you haven’t been and live within a 100 mile radius of here you need to go ASAP. Tried the pear with blue cheese and boy was it worth the calories.

     

It has been a weird winter here. December was dry and warm, then January started to feel more “normal”. But the last few days has been all over the place. This has led to some confused plants, multiple rainbows and even a chance to wear my sunglasses! The joys of living in the Pacific Northwest!
