After I got back from my Milwaukee/Chicago trip, work sent me off to Oregon for a few days to teach a training class to HP. I flew into Portland, but spent most of my time in Corvallis (~100 miles south of Portland). Once that was over, I explored Salem (Oregon's capitol) and spent most of my time exploring downtown Portland. Portland was a really cool town -  spring was in full bloom there!  I wouldn't mind going back to Portland someday - the downtown area was really neat!
