salmon, mcmenamins and timberline

hells yeah, the fishing trip is on for this weekend. we leave tonight to head north a couple of hours up to some river in washington for salmon fishing with this guy!

last night went to mcmenamins on broadway for the best burger i've had in a really long time, some incredible locally brewed stout and also some local gin i had with olives... melenie enjoyed the ruby beer and a couple of pomegranete cosmos that she said were the best she's ever had..and thats a damn nice compliment as she's a certified cosmopolitan expert...mcmenamins, by the way, are bars and hotels and movie theatres all owned by these two brothers..they brew their own beer, put movie theatres into cool bars into hotels, etc.. they have about 20 locations, all in oregon, i think.. they turned a whole elementary scool, the kennedy school into this huge fucking bar...one of them is a hotel, golf course, huge pool, movie theatre, and like 10 bars in one place, its supposed to be amazing....good food, good beer, dope atmosphere, what else do you need?!?! once again - mcmenamins.com

my parents and lil sis are coming to visit on wed night until sunday...i think we're going to take them up to timberline lodge at mt. hood one of the days and then out to visit jeannie and chris another, and the third chill downtown, hopefully it'll be nice and we can walk around everywhere...
