It’s Official: I No Longer Hate Portland

Posted by: Justine In: DIY| Justine| Oregon| Vacation

Justine here. Been awhile.
Since I completely dissed P-town last year, I feel the need to make reparation to my loyal readers who may have held a divergent opinion.
I hate Portland no longer now that I’m able to accept it for what it is, rather than seeing it as a safe haven away from the [...]

Back in H-Town

Posted by: Dave In: Travel| Vacation

Well folks, we’re back in Houston.
The flight was fairly smooth and shortly after we landed we found our way to our favorite asian restaurant in Houston.
One good meal (and several glasses of wine later) we are home safe and sound.
We will be picking up Queenie tomorrow; so the Above the Aether grotto is fairly quiet [...]

Galveston Island

Posted by: davidherrold In: Mobile| Texas| Travel| Vacation

It’s funny. As soon as I cross the bridge from mainland Texas to Galveston Island I start to immediately relax. The people here have two pairs of flip-flops…one casual and one formal. I like it here. The picture above is from our hotel window.

Everybody’s working for the weekend

Posted by: Dave In: Texas| Travel| Vacation

We need to get out of Houston for a little bit, so we’re headed to Galveston for the weekend (where there is very little hustling or bustling).
I may post once or twice with my phone when I’m there.
Looking forward to getting out of the city for a short while.

Colorado trip photos

Posted by: davidherrold In: Outdoors| Vacation

This is a picture of Alberta Falls in Rocky Mountains National Park. It was a hot day, but the mist from the falls was cool and breezy. It was a great trip.
You can see some more photos from the trip here on our Flickr pages.

Boulderado water fountain

Posted by: Above The Aether In: Photography| Vacation

Justine noticed an antique water fountain in the hotel lobby as we were walking back from the hotel bar. Apparently it used to draw water directly from mountain runoff. The hotel is full of stuff like this. Neat place.
According to Justine, the rum mojitos are very good too.
Happy 4th of July everyone!

Boulderado

Posted by: Above The Aether In: Vacation

We’re staying at the Boulderado until Friday this week. I’ve always wanted to stay here but never really had the opportunity until now. It’s a very nice hotel 2 blocks from Pearl Street. They’ve been in business nearly 100 years. I used to hang out in the basement bar of the [...]
