So where would you take your friend from Manhattan?

The Portland City Grill and then a couple of grocery stores? My friend Sun is actually FROM here (Hazel Dell if you want to get technical about it) and RESIDES in Manhattan, so it’s not like I took her on a tour of grocery stores or anything. Her busy parents are too busy to clean the house to her liking, so we went and bought cleaning supplies.

But first we had lunch at the Portland City Grill on the 30th floor of “Big Pink” where we were NOT met by our friend Terry, who is still too good for us. We spent 2 1/2 hours there talking nonsense as good friends who have known each other for too long should. Sun always says she’s known me her entire adult life, since we met in her freshman year at Portland State and now she’s all growed up and making buckets of money at some financial firm in NYC. Or at least close to NYC in the wrong direction (NJ). OK, now I feel old.
