A Travel Day
There is no sales tax in Oregon - Don found a bunch of San Diego postcards for his collection (several from the fifties of the harbor and city views many for 25 cents each - unheard of in San Diego and ebay) and gasoline is less than in California (under $4.00/gallon).
We arrived in Portland in the afternoon and found a motel in town. We walked a few blocks to the free train to downtown and met a college student from Duluth, Minnesota. We got off at the end of the line (the university) and walked around enjoying the beautiful parks and sculptures. Getting back the free train was crowded with people going to the Trailblazers Basketball game - two stops before ours.
Next stop Washington.
