Labor Day Weekend S2K Trip: Portland!
 

We(Jason, Matt, and Manish) are planning a trip down to Oregon this coming weekend and are inviting anyone that might like to come tour some of sights, sounds, and breweries/wineries down in the Portland, Oregon area.

We are planning on leaving September 2 at 8am.

We will be meeting at the old Billy Mchales in Factoria Square.

We will most probably stay for 2 nights Saturday and Sunday

I will be in Alaska next weekend but.... we were in Portland last week and we stayed at McMenimins Grand Lodge

It was a great place, I highly reccomend it :)

I've stayed at the Grand Lodge, as well. I second the recommendation! :thumbup:

is that hotel in downtown portland?

I'll be heading over to the Gorge for the weekend to go see Dave Matthews.

Hope you guys have fun though. :)

Title should say 8 am :)

BJ's is always a good place to go. Get yourself a growler. :)

The Widmer Brewery is fun to go to. I worked for Budweiser for 8 years, who is partial owners of Widmer. I've been in there a few times. They have some interesting brews there. There is one that is made in a whisky barrel. Leaves a very strong whisky aftertaste. The Berewry tours are free and on Saturdays run at 11am and noon. You also have to make reservations. Then you can go eat lunch at the Gasthaus Pub.

If I think of anything else, i'll post up for you guys.

no it's in the boonies, east of town. check the link!

Saturday

Is really up to you guys.

I have good price on the downtown hilton $119 ish per night

If you guys want you can also split rooms? If you want to stay at McMenimins Grand Lodge we can do that too. It's really up to you but we should get the hotel reservations down soon :LOL:


Sunday

Rogue Brewery has 2 rooms for us

Look like Jason and Manish will have to share a room though (If this is not ok please PM me and I'll see if I can find other accomidations)

They only have 2 rooms available, one has a queen the other has 2 beds and a fold out.

I reserved both under my name and credit card for now.

We'll be doing a drive down the coast of Oregon down to the rogue some time during the Sunday, I'm still mapping out routes for us to take
