So here we are in the lobby at the fabulous Hotel Lucia in downtown Portland (about 10 blocks from where Ryan will be working next year in the Wells Fargo building pictured here as well) celebrating Valentines! Thirty years ago we got engaged, can you believe it!! (See story below under 'My Valentine'). Tons of fun: like coming up out of the parking garage with our pillows, books, and bags in hand, only to find Steve & Trina Fowler standing on the very street corner with their son Chase, then heading down to Pioneer square for the opening ceremonies of the Winter Olympics on a big screen, then to all the jewelry stores to check out new rings, and getting on the Max to explore the rest of downtown Portland. Couldn't have been better! So what are you doing for your Valentine this year?

Hey Steviedan!!! How's it going? Gary Shiohama here! Your name popped into my head today, so I searched around and found your blog. You're all looking great. And Ryan is all grown up. Gee, I remember when he was just a small boy. Well, I'm still pastoring down at the same place -- South Bay Community Church in Gardena. Going on 18 years. Would love to catch up with you some time. You can find me on FB or email me at gary@southbaycommunitychurch.com. Hope to hear from you!!
