An "amusing" adventure

Drunk Fox was helping me with my chores today.  We were cleaning a cupboard in the kitchen and made quite a mess.  My roommates kept hinting that if we got this cleaned up they would take me on an adventure today.  It's been a long time since I have had a proper adventure so I was immediately up for the trip.

Being a good fox I got the cupboard organized quickly.  Off for my adventure.  Our hike starts off at a Nature center.  The have an amphitheater and some displays.  Apparently, where we are hiking to today was once an amusement park.  I wonder if they have any cotton candy at the top of the trail?  Let's go!

My roommates showed me a picture of the amusement park.  It looks like Disney has some competition.

This looks like a great park, can't wait to go.

Whew, after a grueling session up the hill we made it to the top.  Hmm, I don't see an amusement park up here.  No cotton candy, no coffee stand, no nothing!

 The only thing I see (besides the view) is the neat water fountain.  It works perfectly, which is good because we all know little foxes need hydration.

Even though there wasn't the amusement park at the top of the hike it was still good to get out.

My roommates treated me to lunch and told me I could get anything I wanted.  I negotiated two meals; one for me and one to take home for Drunk Fox since he helped me with the cupboard organization.  Maybe I should add negotiator to my resume?

A brisk fall walk

This morning the weather was pretty good so we decided to take a walk around the city.

So many walks to choose from we all had to share our two cents. I wanted The one through the Hollywood district but lost out on a vote. Everyone else wanted to go somewhere else. 

Off to SE Portland.  Lots of leaves still on the ground (and the ground was wet for a little fox) and even a few roses left on the rose bushes. 

Lots of cool old houses along the way. This one looks like something we would see in California, not Oregon. "Quick, take my picture before anyone comes out to shoo us away". 

Time to hit the local grocery store and get some coffee to warm up. Saw 

This neat rain collection statue thing in front of the store and begged them to take my picture. 

Now that my brisk fall city hike is over, i think i will relax with some warm hot chocolate.
