Good shave. We went just out of Portland to the Multnomah Falls today. There's tons of trails that you can hike but we just went far enough to see the waterfall and then back to the gift shop, neither my sister or I am ready to tackle anything that intense quite yet. We'll have to see how things look in a couple weeks though ;)

Unfortunately it looks like a couple of quotes got dropped but I wanted to say thank you again to everyone for the well wishes for both me and my kid sister. At the moment we're both not feeling very comfortable but if things progress like they have been thus-far it won't take long for us to be back in prime condition. I just can't wait to get back home. I ordered some slabs of G-10 and I've got a couple razors that I'm dying to get scales on and honed up. One thing at a time though.

Thanks to everyone,
Michael
