Grand Lodge Getaway

For Jeremy's birthday I arranged a getaway for the two of us at Mcmennamin's Grand Lodge in Forest Grove.

Our room was small and quaint, with a beautiful view. On Saturday morning Jeremy snuck out of the room, letting me sleep in. He came back with a pot of coffee, bagels and cream cheese, and a newspaper. We spent the next hour or so reading, sipping coffee, catching up on blogs (the lodge had wireless), and talking. This was the best part of the weekend for me. The chance to completely relax without guilt.

This being Jeremy's birthday weekend, we had sushi for lunch. Marine Polis is not your usual sushi place. A conveyer belt encircles the dining room delivering individual servings of sushi to all of the customers. You just grab a plate as it glides past your table. What do you know, I actually like sushi!
