Thursday Rain Day

The rain didn't come until around 5PM, but it changed our plans for the evening. We *had* planned on going to something called First Thursday (http://www.firstthursdayportland.com/) to spend a couple hours looking at what the art galleries were showing. But, we were rained out. It wasn't just a little bit of rain, but at a level where some roads were closed, 1/2 inch hail to the east of Portland, and strong winds that knocked down tree branches. While the storm passed through within an hour, the drizzle continued the rest of the evening. We decided that even if First Thursday was happening (Portlanders are waterproof and don't notice rain), we weren't going to enjoy it.

So, we went to Laurelwood Brewery (http://www.laurelwoodbrewpub.com/) for dinner and called it an early night.

Earlier in the day, I checked out F.H. Steinbart (http://www.fhsteinbart.com/)
