rainy lights

We hit the Portland International Raceway for the one night they let people walk around the track (rather than drive) to see the big holiday light displays. We had plans to go last year but were deterred by the rain. This year we bravely faced the drizzle (does it always rain the first Monday in December?) and hooked up with the Cedros clan to march the track.








The kids ran like crazy with lots of happy screaming and silliness.















I had my own scream of delight when just steps into the walk, Auntie Brooke broke out the holiday cocktails. I think she called these Chocolate Nutties. The recipe was a blur of desirable liquor - topped off with a maraschino cherry.
The combination of crazy weather, strong drinks and holiday happiness made for a very fun night.
