24 hours in Rip City & all I got is a shot of 39

October 26, 2025

For real really, it was exactly 24 hours in Portland sandwiched between two epic Amtrak rides along the I-5 corridor. Down & Back. Ye olde trainy trains. 

Junior-Junior asked if he could see the Golden State Warriors play someday and that day was Friday.  We got to see Steph Curry, Jimmy Butler and Draymond Green playing Damian Lillard and Donovan Clingan from section 308 in the Moda Center. 

I saw a rainbow. I saw Powell’s Books for the first time in a long long time. I saw a food-truck burrito unlike anything I’ve ever seen, and I ate it. I saw the Pearl District inside and out wandering around and around like a clueless tourist. 

I did not see any inflatable frogs, ICE Agents or National Guard troops. 

I did see Three-Nine and have a beer or three with him. That was cool.  Very cool. Please take a moment to locate the Messquerade Hoody nearest you. Keep in mind, it may be behind you.
