Sandy's Christmas present to Eric this year was a trip to the Oregon Brewfest in Portland. Alex and his friend Cris flew in to join us. 88 brewers had their beers to sample, over 5 days. Despite a valiant effort, we didn't get to all of them. We also visited the Rose Garden and Japanese Gardens on one day. We also headed out to Multnomah Falls (claimed to be the 2nd highest continuous running falls in the US, which is highly disputed.)
