LAST WEEK IN PORTLAND






As always it is great to be here in Portland with the kids. Poor Amy keeps having to go to appointments she had really not hoped to keep. Ultrasounds, doctors appointments and non-stress tests. Everything looks perfect, but let's face it carrying two babies who are growing bigger every day is quite a huge "undertaking," if you excuse the expression.

Rick and May are well settled into their life as parents. We take walks frequently. The weather has been very nice these days. Ron calls it a false spring. The snapshots are from Laurelhurst Park on Wednesday afternoon.

On Valentine's Day I took Amy, Rick, May and Nico to Violet's for breakfast. Ronnie had to work. In the evening Rick and May insisted on Nico and I accompanying them to their favorite restaurant, Nostrana, for a Valentine Day's Feast. It is Italian and amazing. I had Parsnip and Parsley soup and roast pork with a potatoes and vegetable mash. My dessert was from Siena, as in Tuscany Italy. Yum! Yum!
