Sorry I haven't posted for awhile... I have been trying to keep up though Wink

I live in Oregon! I'll see if I can talk my roommate into driving me up to Portland (maybe even join us?). It'd be fun Wink

Thanks Soda and others who came on Saturday. I posted photos at http://www.flickr.com/photos/ame/tags/lostring/ and a short video at http://vimeo.com/1102352

We decided to meet again on Sunday, June 8th, possibly at a different park (someplace we can try chalk on a hard surface?). I'll be posting a new event invite on Upcoming in the next day or two.

Yeah, that silly parade will paralyze the ways in and out of city as those jealous suburbanites flock to watch. Anyway.

spinnerin, might you change the topic of this thread to the date June 8 for our next training session?

Thread subject updated.

I'm looking around on the parks sites for something near downtown with a paved surface. Maybe Lownsdale Square http://www.portlandonline.com/parks/finder/index.cfm?action=ViewPark&PropertyID=243&subareas=6? It looks like there's some flat space near the monument in the center.

Lovejoy Fountain Park might work too: http://www.portlandonline.com/parks/finder/index.cfm?action=ViewPark&PropertyID=242&subareas=6

I looked at Lowsndale Square last night on my way out Division. It's all at a slight grade, enough I think, to add a balance problem to a little stumble when you're blindfolded.
I'm still hoping we can find a hardtop surface that we can draw on.

Competing Rose Festival events June 8 should be limited to the waterfront.
Maybe we can met in SE? a schoolground perhaps that one around SE 13 & Belmont (I should get out a map).

We had low turnout last weekend, but we're trying again on Sunday. Please RSVP if you can come. If we get enough people, we could even run through a 7 circuit labyrinth too.
