Portland: Friday and Saturday

Friday and Saturday of the week in Portland were also the second and third days of Fall into Darkness. They were also the two primary days of book hunting, as in hitting the used book shops for good deals.  Friday began with lunch at a buffet place called Sweet Tomatoes, which is primarily a soup and salad buffet.  I found this place to be pretty good in many respects, but I could have picked a better soup than the baked potato soup.  From there, it was on to the Tigard Library for the book sale.  A couple of books and a Pogues and Helloween CD later, it was on to a couple of Goodwill stores and a used book store for more good deals.  A pit stop back at the home base followed before heading out to the Branx for Agalloch.

Saturday began with breakfast (read: part of a footlong from WINCO, beef jerky, and Bridgeport Highland Ambush) before heading out east for more book deals.  This day was relatively uneventful in the time leading up to day three of Fall into Darkness Festival.  The "real fun" would begin on Sunday...
