Written by NomadicMatt @ Nomadic Matt's Travel Site

Read MoreRestaurant Review: Delores PDX
Written by Island Miler @ Jeffsetter Travel
For our last dinner outing in Portland last year, we decided to check out Delores PDX. The specialty here is Polish food, which is something that’s nearly impossible to find out here in Hawaii.

I love all natural shave ice. I can’t even eat the old school syrupy stuff anymore. So, while we were in Portland last year, I made it a point to finally give Wailua Shave Ice Portland a try. I’m actually kind of embarrassed that I haven’t tried Wailua Shave Ice before. After all, they’re a […]

Written by Stephan Segraves @ Stephan Segraves
I have been fighting an enemy that continually sends in reinforcements and those reinforcements seem to pop up in all kinds of locations that are meant as ambushes.
