There is a bus system need to check schedule to get to the transit center. Will check vegan place and the donut place has vegan donuts and open late. Etiopian rest in SE Portland (Jarra) I know of. There is a backroads trail you may want to see, beer, vineyards, or just walk around town. Belmont has better coffee shops but I have not been hanging out there as it is far from where I live. Lots for you to do--I will get the Willamette Week for you. The Amtrak goes to Seattle but you said you will be driving as you will go to Mt St Helens. \\ HI LIZA: this e-mail might look strange, the Word program gave me error messages about replying to this message, I'm sending it in HTML I really need this vacation. Counting down til Tuesday night. See you Wednesday. I still have not talked to my cousin. I left a message on their home phone number in CArlton. I am hoping their kids are OK, or else people with young kids just get very flakey. I'll try calling them this weekend. --- On Thu, 9/4/08, Noelle <http://dummy.us.eu.org/Noelleg> wrote: From: Noelle <http://dummy.us.eu.org/Noelleg> Subject: RE: today To: http://profiles.yahoo.com/ldlcsamson Date: Thursday, September 4, 2008, 9:10 AM I went ahead and reserved our Amtrak sleeping car. I remember those old movies where the people are traveling on trains and I always wanted to see how that was like. I will send you the itinerary, we are arriving 8/22 and leaving 8/31. I called my cousins house, no answer, I left a voicemail. I should have called one of their cellphone numbers instead(I should do this tonight). Do you have public transportation near your apt? Have you been to Food Fight Vegan Grocery? We have a vegan cooking video and one segment they visit the grocery. We could also go to the donut place. If you have other ideas let me know. Are there Ethiopian restaurants you know of? -----Original Message----- From: Liza Samson [http://profiles.yahoo.com/ldlcsamson] Sent: Friday, August 29, 2008 8:33 PM To: Noelle Subject: RE: today Oct 22 is Wed.

I haven¢t heard back from my cousin yet(probably should call him this weekend). I bet his wife will vote for McCain/Palin(the Downs syn. Vote). If you go to my flickr.com you can see me wearing the Obama 08 tie dye shirt I bought at the Sacramento for Obama family picnic. -----Original Message----- From: Liza Samson [http://profiles.yahoo.com/ldlcsamson] Sent: Thursday, August 28, 2008 9:14 AM To: Noelle Subject: RE: today Yeah let me know what you end up with; The Amtrak goes straight to Portland via Davis and Eugene and on to Seattle; does not go straight to Vancouver, but there is a bus connection. and from Vancouver to the rest of Canada--how much time to you have? --- On Thu, 8/28/08, Noelle <http://dummy.us.eu.org/Noelleg> wrote: From: Noelle <http://dummy.us.eu.org/Noelleg> Subject: RE: today To: "Robert" <http://dummy.us.eu.org/robert> Cc: http://www.msn.com/~rnd, http://profiles.yahoo.com/ldlcsamson Date: Thursday, August 28, 2008, 9:01 AM I got 10/21-10/31 off from work, so let's start planning.
