I’m back!

Cargo, Portland Oregon

     So where do I begin?  Our trip lasted 2 weeks and we spent 2 whole days in Portland.   We started out in the Pearl District.  Lots of nice shops, but our favorites where Powell’s Books and a shop called Cargo.  Let’s face it.  Powell’s has everything book-wise, including rare books. And Cargo is a import shop that is totally filled with fun stuff.

      Cargo is easy to spot because of their not-so-subtle exterior.

 And, their not-so-subtle interior.

Some guy we met in Portland.

 The people there weren’t very subtle either.

Choose a hair cut.

 There is so much inside of Cargo I didn’t know where to begin, especially when taking photo’s.  So I decided to take pictures that would show pretty colors.  Oh…. Pretty beads……Oh, the pretty colors…..

The gang.

 The whole gang turned up.

Minions in a box.

 My favorite item at Cargo’s is the Minions in the box.  Who doesn’t want minions.

Hypnotic gaze.

 Can’t take your eyes aways, can you.  Feel their stare as the little black eyes penetrate your soul.

Stare deeper.

 Good minions…

*PLEASE NOTE*  Minion images where taken by my Daughter.  If I didn’t say this she said she would be very upset.

More trip stuff to come….

    I love it! I wish I could have been there when the whole gang showed up!

    And I would be very suspicious of those minions. They are getting ready for a revolution, or a coup. Or in their case, perhaps a coop?

    okay, we just got back to our hotel room after a field trip to Cargo. I just had to go after reading your trip report. It is fantastic. Had it not been for two kids and a husband waiting on the front patio I would still be there. Thank you soooooo much for the recommendation!
