The mixed up adventures of P and C's unanimous blog: July 2011

Recently my best friends and I had a college reunion in the beautiful state of

Oregon aka Rivendell. Danielle's family lives there and was kind enough

to let us stay with them while we were there.

My second home

Eileen (Danielle's mom) has one of the most beautiful garden in the world, it's one of my favorite places to be.

To the left is me and our gracious host Jean Pierre and to the right with our two friends Zach and Paul

JP with his daughter Christa. My two best friends Betsey and Danielle. Danielle is also JP's daughter.

JP was born and raised in Switzerland. He can speak about five or six languages. Before we left for the day, JP sent us off with a beautiful prayer spoken in Swiss for us.

Scooter Sterling aka old Chinese man Bunny Bunny

Me and my friend Zach Eileen and Danielle Christa

One of the greatest members of the Boinay family.

The first place we went to was the beautiful Portland Rose Gardens.

*not a picture taken by me because clearly I'm on a hill taking another picture.

We also spent the day in fantastic downtown Portland.

Speaking of keeping Portland weird, who just leaves a pile of hotdog buns on the sidewalk? Very weird.....

*This picture of the Chocolate sign was taken by Betsey

One of my favorite stores in Portland is 3 Monkeys.

These are some of the most fantastic cards I've ever seen.

Anybody who knows Portland knows that Voodoo doughnuts is one of the most important stops you can make.

*These two picture above were taken by Betsey

Me and Paul excited for some doughnuts. Walking up the beach. Betsey took these pics.

To me Friday was known as "GOONIE DAY!" What kid hasn't grown up loving the movie

The Goonies? We went to Astoria and Cannon Beach to see

all the places that The Goonies was filmed.

The first place we hit up was the actual house that was used as Mikey and Brand Walsh's house aka The Goonie house.

Right next door was the house that was used as Data's house. Data was the character who

had all the crazy inventions. He often crashed into the Walsh's door instead of entering it.

There is a scene that didn't make the final cut in the movie, but it featured

the Goonies being chased into this store to escape Troy. To the left is the picture

I took while we waited at a stop light. To the right is the store in the scene from the movie.

The next stop was the museum that Mr. Walsh worked at and also the jail

that the Fratellis escaped from.

*website picture

They had the actual jeep that was driven by Mama Fratelli in the movie.

They even signed the dashboard. The bullet holes that Chunk spotted and tried to warn the other Goonies about.

This is the actual beach where the Goonies looked through One Eyed Willy's coin and saw the rocks line up.

Me Betsey

Saturday morning we went to the Portland Temple. It's unbelievably

breathtaking inside and out.

Betsey, me and Danielle

We also hit up Tilamook factory where the most amazing cheese is made.

It was so cool to see how the cheese was packaged. Unfortunately we had gotten there near closing time so we didn't get to see any of the cheese being made but atleast they still had samples to try!
