Lordy~it appears there were so many posts, the editors stopped subsequent ones! So, let me also welcome you to the left coast. Portland is a great city. Check out the linens (a must for the new house) at French Quarter in the Pearl.

And, perhaps you and the Yankee can come on down for the Yountville GTG @Thanksgiving.

Is Carlett going to Portland with Scarlett?

Fodors didn't shut it down (as I also thought), but you have to scroll to the right to be able to post.

Carlett?? someone call me?? LOL Thank you Pam darlin!
Fodors is just too weird today, no? They are making us Think and Work to post, which is really not fair!
I hate to Think. It only gets me into trouble

I saw French Quarter when we were in PDX in Sept ( hurricane avoidance month) and wished I could spend a lot in that store..now I will hoepfully maybe get that wish!
We are house/apt hunting online and as soon as an offer comes in, we are on a plane..Hoping to be there while it is still summer, we have to convince the Yankee that it really does not rain every single day (ho ho ho)

Scarlett

I promise to learn how to type in my next life!

Please don't, PamSF, this is way more fun

If you learn to type, then I might have to, then what fun will there be?

Dear Scarlett, rain? In Portland? Where did Yankee get that idea? No, Portland never gets any rain. At least keep telling Yankee that until you get settled in the PNW. And the rest of us will not give away the secret.
Actually, as you know, I love Portland!!
