Well, it’s winter in Portland, no matter what the calendar says. The weather’s beyond just “chilly” these days, and some of the leaves haven’t even had time to change color before they’re already falling off the trees.

I’m not a parent, so I don’t know how this works first-hand, but it seems that if you loved to travel your kids could either be as excited about getting on a plane as you are, or they could be really peeved at you every time you showed them their tickets. I don’t know what [read more]
