Work Trips - Fall 2014

This fall was full of work trips...7 to be exact!  Chicago, New York, Atlanta (twice), Delaware (it still counts), Portland, and San Juan.  Since they were work trips, I didn't get to do too much, but managed to squeeze in a few pictures...and runs.

CHICAGO

View from my hotel (yes, the window actually opened, at least enough to get my camera out it).

Marc Chagall mosaic on my walk from the hotel to the Regional office.  Fascinates me every time.

Morning run through Millennium Park.

Bye bye Chicago...

NEW YORK

Finally made it to the 9/11 Memorial.

Views from my morning run...

ATLANTA

View from my hotel on one of the trips.

BRIDGEVILLE, DE

(just a day trip)

PORTLAND, OR

View from my hotel.

There were TONS of Car2Go!

Couldn't go to Portland w/o a stop (or two) at Voodoo Doughnuts.

My vegan oreo peanut butter doughnut - delish!

Only in Portland...

(yes, that is a guy walking his potbelly pig)

Some other sites around Portland...

Bye bye Portland and the mountains surrounding it...

SAN JUAN

Xmas decorations around town...

Our hotel was next to cruise ship alley...different boats every morning!

And I don't know how I missed it on past trips, but the capitol was right down the street from the main area of Old San Juan!

The door was open so we invited ourselves in...

Bye bye San Juan...and my work trips for 2014.
