i just got back from exploring the northwest district (it is northwest of downtown, clever name, huh?...i guess that is better than uptown in minneapolis which is actually "down" from downtown...)
i went with my new portland friend, (my friend who's husband is also in training with travis)...it is great to have someone to explore with. we had so much fun. we ate at a great restaurant and walked around to the cool boutiques...and then we had some gelato...my favorite! It has been really sunny here (we aren't getting a true taste of portland)
travis has been studying like mad this past week. he has a lot to memorize...all those regulations and whatever else. hopefully we'll have a little bit of time to go exploring this weekend.

Hi Kobie --
My husband Ben and I just moved from Minneapolis to Portland too...three days ago! We saw you and your husband in the Star Tribune in that article about Solomon's Porch, and as I was trying to find a way to contact you guys, I stumbled across your blog. It's been fun to read what you've been up to since you arrived in Portland...some of the same things we have -- just exploring the city and trying to decide which church to try this Sunday (Definitely Imago Dei, and maybe another too?). In Mpls, we were members of Church of the Cross, an Anglican church in Hopkins, but visited Solomon's Porch a few times and liked it a lot (we know Janelle Nelson). I know we're complete strangers, but maybe you and your husband would want to meet up with me and my husband sometime? It would be fun to chat about our Mpls connection and other fun things to do/see in Portland.
Have a good weekend,
Nikki Reed
well, i'm glad there was some logic to uptown!
