Karen and I joined our children and their spouses who all live in Portland, Oregon, for holiday celebrations. Everyone seemed to enjoy the festivities, fine dining, games, and conversations. Sightseeing, shopping, dining, and walking the streets of a big city like Portland is exciting for us both. We live in Red Bluff, California, population 15,000; therefore, going to Portland is a real adventure for us.
It has been raining for over two weeks in the northwest. Plenty of rain, but not enough snow in the mountains of California or Oregon. We have benefitted from over 8 inches of rainfall in Red Bluff during the month of December.
We went shopping at Powell's Bookstore in downtown Portland. They offer a very good selection of new and used books on T'ai Chi Ch'uan, Qigong, Yoga, Kung Fu, exercise, and Asian philosophy and religion. I purchased the book "Tai Chi Connections: Advancing Your Tai Chi Experience" by John Loupos (YMAA, 2005). I look forward to reading the book this week.
