Scorcher - Battleground, Woodland & Pier Park.

Not all food cart locations look that great. This one has a bar at the back. May visit it soon.

There was a plot of land with 2 old Portland houses, they were knocked down & these little places were built. Seem a bit cramped to me.

The day kicked off in Burnside, one more surreal experience; we met Osage & he told me all about how he has the native American rights to fish the river next to Burnside. How I wish Zach had taken our picture together, maybe there is still time? I worry that the PBR at 10 am will not do him any good (It's on offer in Portland, with 16 cans for $10.99 I think we paid later in the day). He also told me about the collaboration with Red in the early days & then took me to the nearby workshop where people are making iPhone covers out of old decks (they look really nice). Then we hightailed it out to Battleground.

I like the stars & stripes in this one.

Next stop was Woodland, a nice little park by the I5 with a pretty little lake that was nice to paddle in, with crystal clear water which was warm. Zach said it was full of duck crap, but seemed great to me.

Must remember to give the vicar his teeth back when I get home.

Watch out for stones.

Then onto Pier Park, the big one I have been waiting to visit. we have all seen the footage. Someone had burned a sofa in the bottom of the 11 feet deep end so it was prohibited to skate. Just pumping back & forth in the pipe was enough for me. Feels bigger & a lot scarier than Woody's Art Bowl pipe in Blackpool.

Was super hot though. Finally left the British weather behind?

Final stop Slappy town, the idea of getting busted in a parking lot did not appeal, so I watched this one, anyhoo I can't mess with this stuff anyways.
