Hello, Portland. Did you enjoy Last Thursday around Alberta last week? Of course you did! Good food, drink, and company in an awesome reclaimed neighborhood? What's not to love? Well, aside from all of the insane number of cars you brought in...

...seriously, I have never seen so many "eco-friendly" bumper-stickers crammed into such a small space! More amazing still was the number of buses that inched down 33rd, almost completely empty. Most of you couldn't even find parking and just kept driving; I'm sure the residents of the neighborhood really appreciated all that, too!
