I surprised my wife with a trip to Portland for her to get dreads. It something she has been thinking about for awhile!

So after months of planning and coordiating.. Appointments, hotel, childcare, etc we arrived in Portland on Wednesday morning.

Here are a few pics of the trip:

Stephanie from akemi salon or http://www.dreadgoddess.com doing the deal!

The finished product.

We took portlands bus system called the trimet around town.. Definitely beat a rental since we didn’t have to worry about parking.

Seems like it’s either vegan or bacon in Portland! I vote bacon!

Stood in line for this! It was worth it!

Here are some more random pics from around town.

We also stopped by electric cobra tattoo and said hello to the guys working there! If you are looking for a classy place to get tattooed, for sure check these dudes out! Incredible shop with a great dress code! Go down there to find out what I’m talking about.

Anyway, that’s the quick of it! I may post more later! Thanks as always for checking out my blog.
