August 1, 2013---Elks Lodge, Sherwood, Oregon


July really ripped by, didn’t it?  And August arrived cool and cloudy.

Bill and I went on some errands today.  We found City Liquidators, which took some doing.  It is in a warehouse district of Portland and after going round and round several blocks until we finally found it.  I hadn’t been there for several years.  It had changed quite a bit.  For one thing, the merchandise was more pricey than I remembered.  It was fun to look around, but I wasn’t tempted to purchase anything.

We ate at Burger King before leaving the area.  It was so cold in there we didn’t even need to chew.  Our teeth were chattering so much it took the place of chewing!

Went to Costco for a few items.  Winco was just around the corner so we shopped there, also.

While I went into a bead store Bill sat in the car and listened to music.  The store, Bead Bullies, has a lot of beads and supplies and their prices were good.  The name of the store is in reference to the resident bulldog who seems to be in charge.

A stop at Dollar Tree ended our errands for the day.  We were glad to get back to the motorhome for naps.  

Lori, Natalia, and the pups made it to Colorado safely.  Brent and I both wish we were there, also.  Maybe next year...
