One day at work there was a big important meeting and people came from all over Washington and also Idaho! and California! We had yummy sub sandwiches for lunch. I do not know what the meeting was about yak yak yak.  Lunch is the important part.

This weekend we went to an art festival !! Here I am with Heidi who is so beautiful and also she makes really great pottery.

And this is me with Julia who makes awesome metal sculptures of birds. Tigers like birds!! Chomp chomp.  Julia is totally gorgeous.

This is Martha who makes the most amazing wood bowls and jewelry. She uses a complicated and intricate process using hundreds or even over a thousand pieces of wood!  She was super nice!  and also super beautiful!

OMG the most amazing thing happened!  We heard that my friend Drew  helped rescue a shark attack victim.  Drew is a chef at the Pike Place Market restaurant that we like to go to here is a picture of us together.

And here is a the video link about Drew doing the rescue. He is visiting Hawaii for a couple of months and thank goodness he was there at the right time to help the surfer who was bit by a shark.

Oh Boy at work there was a video crew making a movie and they came in Mom’s office and interviewed her!!!   They should have talked to me. I have much more interesting adventures than mom.

.

Also while at work I helped on the computer. It is best when you have more than one monitor, you can get a lot more done that way.

One day we went to the store and look at what they are selling!!  Mom said she is not going to do any pumpkin carving this year.  I thought it was fun last time but mom did not enjoy the little plastic carving tools.

At the store there is a machine where for a quarter you can try to pick a new friend. We did not have any quarters. But next time I will bring quarters with me.

We had so much fun exploring Portland! Here we are in the morning looking at the mighty Columbia River.

This is me with Kessey who is so gorgeous and works in a gift shop. mom did you notice all the great cat stuff in this store!?!?

Portland has so many super cool light rail trains that go all over the place!!!

OMG this is Neil he gets to drive the train!  He stopped the train and talked to us and was so fun and funny!!  He is so handsome and totally cool!  We should spend a few days just riding around on the trains.

Here I am with a pirate!  He is guarding a place where there is glow-in-the-dark putt putt golf!

And here we are on the way home.  It is fun to go travelling and have adventures but it is always so  good to get home too.

We went to Portland for a conference!  Mom says this is the last one for a while.

Someone brought VooDoo donuts to the conference!!! YUM!  Tigers love donuts. And they are good for you too don’t believe what anybody else tells you.

We also got to eat lots of delicious food at restaurants and at the meetings.

The Very Best thing of all is I got to see Emily and George again!!!  Me and mom brought them red bandanas just like mine!!! and we put my Portland pin on the one for George and we got another Portland pin with a rose on it for Emily.

Here we all are with Brian!  Emily and George belong to Brian’s children. Brian travels a lot and he takes Emily and George with him. It is so nice to have good friends like George and Emily and Brian.

Dove is staying with us!!!!  Dove stays in our guest room when her mom is travelling. Dove is a very beautiful and sweet cat and is a lot of fun.

Look what we ordered on the internet it is a water bottle for Limberbutt McCubbins who is a cat running for President. President of the United States! For real!

Best of all the water bottle came in a box that is the perfect size to play in. It’s been kind of a quiet week because mom has not been feeling good and when she is sick she gets Grouchy. So it  is best to play quietly.

At work I got to spend some time with Bill he is in charge of the Human Resources department. That is a very important job. It would be good if there was also a department for Tiger Resources. Bill is very nice and handsome and is a Seahawk fan same as me.
