Well, I had a quick stop in Portland for just a few days and I only had my camera with me once and I got these pictures that just struck me as very Portland. The picture of the guy with the pink shoulder bag looked, talked and smelled slightly like a pirate. He stopped one of the people in our group and explained to us all the history of his tee shirt. Interestingly enough, I don't remember what Andy's shirt was because I kept looking for this pirate-ish guy's cutless to be pointed at us at any moment to spit at us in his pirate-ese, "Avast there me hearty. Ye, have no idea-r what ye have there. I know three sea dawgs that would make ye walk the plank fer wearing such a foul garb out here in the open. But, I won't tell a soul about yer mistake for a pint of rum." OK, if you know me you know my imagination runs away with me sometimes.
Then, I found this sign for gluten free pizza...I have no idea why I thought that was funny. I mean I really like pizza and if I had to eat pizza without gluten due to some kind of medical situation, I would really appreciate someone making pizza without the offending gluten!
After the pizza and before the pirate we walked into the pioneer courthouse square thing and there were all these sand sculptures. I was amazed that someone would have the patience and the desire to make a sculpture out of sand. (I mean you are in Portland and one good rain would wash away hours of work and I hear it rains in Portland.) Then, out of all the things in the world you are inspired to make a Sponge Bob Square Pants...beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

That sand was cool though I wouldn't waste my time on it either.
