Typo, or correction, or retraction, or whatever the newspapers do.
Yesterday’s pix included what we thought was a otter.
Anyway it was a Nutria, and they make good eating, so I’m told.
Today was a very positive day, from a business point of view,
I had a very important phone call to handle, which was the reason we stayed in America until today, and it went very well.
Enough of the boring stuff.
We found a different type of supermarket today, where thousands of assorted items were in huge bins, spices and rices and herbs and flours and dog food and bird food and candies, and you weighed out what you want, put the code on the bag, and off you went to the checkout. Much, much cheaper than paying for all the packaging and crap.
It was called Winco.
Apart from that we did SFA
Found another local beer, this one is Ropewalk Amber Ale, from Bridgeport Brewery, Portland.
It is so far the best beer of the trip, an excellent little number, with a twist in the taste after the first sip. 9 out of 10
Tomorrow we leave and head North to Seattle.
Today’s wildlife watch was a rabbit and a beautiful Steller’s Jay, blue and black and blue spots on the head, doing what we thought was some form of courtship ritual, although it may have just been farting for all we know!!
PS, please let us know if y'all are still enjoying the travelog, and good luck to my old school mate Dick Gatley in his quest for eternal glory in the Round The Isle Yacht race.
