Explorer's Club!

We decided to form a club. The Portland Explorer's Club, to be precise. It came about because Elizabeth became interested in Paul Bunyan (I cannot remember how), and that led to us doing research, which led to the discover, via Wikipedia, that there was a Paul Bunyan statue right here in Portland, OR!

I was somewhat chagrined that, having lived here 17 years, I was unaware of the presence of a massive, full-color statue of the legendary lumberjack. It seemed obvious that we all needed to get out more, to explore the many fascinating corners of the Rose City. Thus The Portland Explorer's Club was born.

The female members of the club made the inaugural trip to the Bunyan statue itself last week. This weekend, the full membership went on two more expeditions: to Reed Canyon and to the new Portland Aquarium. Both were awesome, as you will see if you stay tuned.

Elizabeth with her current obsession: Paul Bunyan. But where's Babe?
