Portland, Oregon was my seventeenth city during my travels. I cut back on my meetings substantially so I could write the initial text for my book. Portland has a great tech scene. It'll be a good spot to check it out again in the future.

Weird swastika signs in the building tiles where I stayed.

Weird insignia in the tiles at the entrance of the building where I stayed. The building was built in the very early 1900s before swastika signs were associated with the Nazis.
