Greetings from Portland, Oregon

Yes, I am in the big city attending the Ecotourism & Sustainable Tourism Conference. Inspiration and motivation in America's most sustainable city!

Yesterday evening, a freetime from the conference, I spent hoofing around Portland's Historic Gay District. On the upside, Portland has a Historic Gay District. On the downside, it is my old stomping ground. I have a little problem with the term 'historic' being applied to the haunts of my... I can't even call it my 'youth'; more like my 'misspent early 30's'. But I swallowed my pride and toured the sites I used to frequent. 20 years later, and nothing is the same. Including me!

Sigh.
