April 10th, 2011: Portlandia

South from Seattle is the fine metropolis of Portland, and a handful of cousins. Marvelous. Always the accommodating crowd, Adam packed up his family and we boogied to Mt. Hood for Rohm's first big snowy adventure. I thought about hopping on the skis, but the snow was about as sticky and wet as could be. Good day to play family photographer.

"Tubing! Charging Mt. Hood with the cousins."

Adam and Rohm hit terminal velocity.

I tried to steal her hat, but she put up quite a fight. Whatever, I don't think it would have fit.

"The sun has set on the Oregon forests. Back to Cali."
