HOLY CRAP, I am in Portland Oregon for the flyfishing trade show that starts tomorrow. My wife took me to a book store called Powell’s Books. This store is HUGE. They have over 1,000,000 books in the store, and they have 3 floors of books that cover an entire city block.

I ended up buying over $200 in flyfishing books. They had one ENTIRE row of books on flyfishing, I would say 20,000 books!!!!!!!

Just thought I would let you know in case any of you ever get down this way.
