On Sunday we said goodbye to a dear friend moving to Texas to attend Trinity Christian University. She is an amazing woman who is pursuing her dream after a very long time of waiting and the Lord has totally opened amazing doors for her. I can't wait to hear about her adventures- but onto our journey.
After church we headed to the unknown world of Gresham...we found very interesting things on our way- things we had no idea were even in Portland!
 |
| A bomber plane...a real one, on top of some sort of structure. You can park under it, in fact many people did when we were there. |
|
It's actually a restaurant and you can go...we thought it was drive-in type place with milkshakes, which is why we pulled in- but it's actually an old school cafe/diner, they had the following on their sign:
 |
| I think we're going to try and come back some day! Only lovely type people frequent restaurants like this! |
In the same parking lots was this:
 |
| No idea why! |
Hearkening back to my elementary school days I was able to point out the beaver and the raven in this totem pole- meaning of course that it had to be the Northwest Coastal Indians that this was made either for or in model of...I wonder what I could do with that brain capacity that holds all this random information!
Then it was onto the party and Joanna's mother made the most delicious cookies to represent Texas and Oregon...In honor of Rach I took a picture of the food!
 |
| Texas TCU cookies, cowboys (some with handlebar mustaches and some without...so you can take what you like), and umbrellas for the great state of Oregon! |
Joanna- we miss you already! I can only imagine how much you will be loved in Texas- they are gaining quite the woman and you have left a huge hole here! Can't wait to see you at Christmas!
