I have made it to Portland Safely!

Here I am in Portland. This may not seem like a big deal, but to me it is! This is my first Quilt Trade Show (and am I excited). This is also the first time I have traveled alone. I mean on a plane, booking a car and staying at a hotel. I have always traveled with someone I knew, husband, kids, you know. But here I am out in the big world! I am traveling around in a cute little car:



I went by the location of the trade show on my way to the hotel (just so it will look familiar tomorrow morning).


I don’t travel a lot, so when I do I like it when I notice interesting things. I noticed a location that had many Solar City vehicles. I would guess this is for solar panel installations. I think you need a lot of sun for solar panels to work, are you with me? I am in Portland, do they see the sun much here? We have just had solar panels put on our home, but we live in the sunny desert of Southern California. I must say this was perplexing to me.

Next, the toilets at the airport had a strange duel flushing mode. I have never, ever seen this before (I am guessing it’s because I don’t get out of my sewing studio much):





Maybe you have all seen this before. I might need to get out a bit more, what do you think?

Well, tomorrow should be a very exciting day! I am sure I will have stories to share. Goodnight for now,

Blog at you later,
Tiffany

Know what it is like to go to a strange place and feel like you are the only one that doesn't know where or what to do. Believe me I'm sure everyone probably feels like you do. Have fun!
