MGM's Portland experience

Portland is sweet! It reminds me a little of Berkeley with it's hippie roots, environmentally friendly feel and lots of local shops. I spent the morning at Adidas' US headquarters. Thanks to JR for showing me around! Adidas had a sweet setup, funky architecture, and a real cool vibe.











Next we went to lunch, and I had by far the best wings of my life. This place was unreal!! It's called Fire on the Mountain. Let me put it this way, I really don't cook but after the meal I was so impressed that I went back in and bought two bottles of their sauces in different flavors. Fire on the Mountain now sells their sauce locally in Whole Foods. Selfishly speaking, this needs to get to the east coast!! I gotta email them and see if they'll ship to Boston.

On the road now to Coeur D'Alene, Idaho. 390 miles door to door. This part of the drive is beautiful! We're driving along the Oregon side of the Columbia River Gorge. At one point there was 50+ kitesurfers in the water, and they were seriously moving! Right now Luc's speeding a little, on the phone with Matty Nelson, and we just passed a cop... It's ok though, the cop was too busy with whomever he already pulled over to bother us. Matty suggests the Porkchop Sandwich tomorrow for lunch in Montana. We're in!! That's it for now. Talk to y'all tomorrow
