Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

My dh is going to be out there for a few days at Portland State. He was wondering where to eat, any places to stay away from, anything cool he should know about, etc.

TIA

Anita

My brothers both live there and I could get restaurant recommendations from them if no one chimes in - one is quite versed in Portland food culture.

A site to see is The Grotto - the National Sanctuary of Our Sorrowful Mother. It's beautiful.

If he likes books - Powell's - the largest independent used and new bookstore in the world.
