Yes, sunshine really is a big deal to Portlanders in January and today it was almost 60 degrees (in California that's considered a cold day - but here it's like a day in Spring!). Being a holiday with good weather, the streets were crowded with people and traffic was as heavy as a work day. We tried to eat lunch at two favorite restaurants but at the first we couldn't find a parking place in a six block radius and the second one had people waiting in a long line for a table. We solved that problem by stopping at Trader Joes to get some groceries and Roger fixed a fabulous lunch at home.
Tonight was the first of three auction nights at O'Gallerie but I was bidding against some really big spenders so we didn't come home with much. There are two nights to go, however, so I'll hope for better luck.
