Patty & Ji invade Portland

Ji tried to get on the Orcas Island trip, but that didn't pan out. Instead she and Patty decided to collide in Portland the 3rd week of October. I'd figured that I'd be long gone from Portland but in fact I'd only made it to Eugene, so I drove north one more time to spend the weekend with them.
