Portland saw an unexpected bout of GLORIOUS sunshine this past weekend, so of course Nick and I got outside as much as possible. Here are some moments from a run + stair climb along the Esplanade, as well as a spontaneous sunset trip to Cannon Beach where I learned that yoga poses on wet sand are not as easy as they look...

I'm not an "avid" runner per say, but when the sun is out in January, how can you resist?! Nick and I like to run the Esplanade, a path bordering both the west and east banks of the Willamette River. We always cross over the infamous Steel Bridge, pictured above.
