Hope you work something out. I’ve done several Portland sits but never managed to have the right dates. But I have enjoyed meeting folks in London X2, Melbourne, SF, and Vancouver Island! And meeting some HOs for coffee in Hayes to introduce them to TH. ---

Hi Elizabeth, Just thought I’d touch bases with you as my sit in Happy Valley starts April 3rd to 10th. Are you still home during those dates? ---

Yes. .I arrive home on 4/2. Happy Valley is a bit far from me and not great for public transit, tho. ---

I’m meeting up with three other women for the Portland Saturday market April 6th and then on to dinner that night after some poking around downtown. Does any of that interest you? ---

You might consider also going to the Portland Farmer’s Market at PSU which occurs on Saturdays 9 am - 2 pm. You could do both this and the Saturday Market (which is open all day). There are several food truck vendors at the Farmer’s Market where you could buy lunch. There are lots of healthy food options in Portland. I have lived there for 31 years. You can check Yelp and Trip Advisor or Google. ---
