Before we even left the house, Sandra said, "boy it's windy out there today."  I looked out and said, "it's not windy here, it just must be in the higher elevations, and we are walking in Portland, so it won't be windy."  Well that was the first mistake of the day.  It was absolutely gorgeous out there today.  Blue sky, puffy clouds, and the wind made me feel like I was back in Chicago.  Geesh, was it windy, but it make the walk feel so good.  Your hair blew around and you didn't build up a sweat.
Sandra said she didn't have to be back in Sherwood till later so we could do lunch.  Second mistake, I was so excited, we could finally go to the Thai place.  I said I was so happy it was just her and me, because the rest of our usual carpool would never go there.  Yipee!  Well the place was closed, so we ended up at even another Mexican place, the Adobe Rose.  Let's see; everyone loved their lunches.  Most everyone ordered the halibut tacos, but I decided to go for the enchilladas.  That was the third mistake.  When you see everyone else not ordering what you are ordering, should be your first clue.  I did enjoy the chocolate mint after.  Everyone really enjoyed their selections, but if I were to go there again, I'd pass on mine and go for the tacos.  By the way, we had 49 walkers and 20 of them joined us for lunch.
But this Saturday I get to redeem it all.  We are doing this all over again, same time and place, but the Thai Place will be open and I'm going.  I might not have a lot in my car for the carpool, but I hope someone joins us, and if not, there's always Fat Albert's.
