Last night we drove over to Oakland and had dinner at Miss Pearl's at the Jack London Square. The food was good (gumbo, fried chicken, hushpuppies) and the drinks were appropriately southern (mint julep, sazerac).

Comments closedThis morning when we got up it wasn't windy at all. We thought we'd go for a drive up Hwy 1 to some of the view pullouts to do a few flights with the hexacopter for some dramatic aerial shoreline footage. Here's Kevin from one of the takeoff spots North…
Comments closedOkay. Wine surfing rules. Gourmet au Bay has a fabulous location right on the bay and was a lovely start to the evening. Owners Bob and Sissy are great, the shop is great, the location is great, and we really need one of these in Portland. They've got six wines on…
