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.

[Chris]

I started with the Nitro Stout, then had the Black Butte, then the Inversion, then the Chainbreaker, and the last one of the evening I don't remember- maybe the Fire King?

Excellent night, overall.  It would have been a good night, just because of the company, but good beer always makes things better, right?

Cross section.

I know this may sound self serving, but I left the Wesco factory today having seen the process of building a boot from start to finish thinking that they should be a lot more expensive.  The love, skill, attention to detail and care taken is simply staggering.

[Giles]

Foot patrols….

A few assorted FP's....

[khaki8]

Boots look killer G..well done..even like the Elvis numbers…

[Giles]

I think the Elvis is my fave…..Paula ordered a pair like that today but with white upper stitching and white lining.....
