The interchange when you enter Portland is crazy! This picture doesn't do it justice but it give you an idea of what it's like. There are several layers of winding exit and entrance ramps. I've never seen anything like it and I couldn't quite figure out how to take my own picture so this is all you get ...

I spent the night in Portland and went to visit the Saturday Market this morning. I've never seen so many things made from hemp. Since I'm in the land of the microbrewery, I also had to try some local brews. They were all very good! I stumbled upon a bar called the Thirsty Lion. They were showing the Michigan game when I got there and the bar was packed with Michigan fans.

The drive from Portland headed east is really cool. You drive along the Columbia River which is incredibly blue, unlike the Mississippi. It was tough taking pictures at 70 mph but I think I managed to get a few good ones so I'll upload them soon.
