G&P Hit the West Coast March 2015

[mclaincausey]

My brother in law took Intrawest private when he worked for Fortress. I really regret not having finagled a nice vacation out to Whistler/Blackcomb, I wasn't even 20 last time I was there.

Today, @Madame Buttonfly and I ski on our own.  We'll miss you @derivative666 , thanks for being amazing company and putting up with the sofa…..

You guys always have a great time wherever you two go around the world.

[kiya]

Portland is waiting for you.

[Giles]

Will be there sometime tomorrow evening.  Have to stop by Vancouver Airport to pick up my "lost" phone…..

[Giles]

The gloves I love.  @derivative666 pointed me in the direction of them, then gave me the poles as a present, because anything more high tech, would look wrong with the gloves.  I got positive comments every day I have been here about both the gloves and the poles (today, boarder dude…...."dig the old skool poles man")...

[twin]

Those gloves are really nice. Enjoy the rest of your time in the US. G&P.

D666 is a national treasure. Great gesture, from a genuine dude. Sooooo no smooches to the MADame & gut check for G?

Darn shame

Just finishing off a bowl of gruel (Paula's porridge) before hitting the road to Portland.

Have to go via Vancouver airport to pick up the phone I left on the inbound plane  and meet up with a customer for coffee.

In theory we will be seeing @kiya, @tmadd and Demitra early this evening…..

Enjoy Portland .

Cheers

@jock1624 It was an absolute pleasure.  Can't wait to meet up again and have you make me laugh and laugh and laugh…...

Indeed, was a most enjoyable coffee stop @jock1624 and definitely not long enough!

[Giles]

This morning we were picked up by kiya and Demitra and taken East…

First stop:  Multnomah Falls...

and it was love at first sight…

[Madame Buttonfly]

Was great to see this little chap again, it had been far too long.  Look how thrilled he is to see me!

Nice pic of the boys in front of the waterfall 

Super lunch at the Double Mountain Brewery in Hood River, thanks so much @kiya and Demitra (and Diesel).

[Giles]

This is my sort of beer wagon….

I mean, seriously, look at this optional extra…...

Then we had some beers…..

[jock1624]

Well done , waterfalls , smiling dog , bearded Kiya and a beer brewery on wheels !

[Giles]

Met up with @Chris and Julie for more beer…

[mclaincausey]

Some familiar ones. Mirror Pond is a reliably tasty ale.

[Seul]

I'd have 1 and 5, then the rest.

[mclaincausey]

I'd go first for the Nitrous Red Chair. I've had 6 of those, but that's not among them and I love nitrous pushed ales.

Edit: hehe hehe I said nitrous instead of nitrogen.
