Portland Waterfront Blues Festival 2009
We sit in front of the two Oak trees on the left on our blankets and sand chairs with a dozen or so friends...lots of micro-brew beer flows at the festival...I think Widmer is providing the beer this year...and a buddy of mine docks his 40 foot boat and we party for a day on his boat......
the night of the 4th...barges are docked on the river and they shoot off 45 minutes of fireworks....
We live 45 minutes away from Portland, but we stay at the Marriott across the street...stumble back to the hotel afterward....and the bell-hop puts me on the luggage cart and takes me to my room...
and we start all over again the next day after breakfast....oh the festival is next to the Hawthorne Bridge in Portland..I was there in this picture, right in front of the Oak trees on the right, can you see me?????
