November Event Guide
Fall is definitely my favorite season. I think it is an amazing combination of beautiful (sometimes very chilly!) weather, cozy feelings, yummy comfort food (and drinks!), and fun events. Bring on the pumpkin spice (basic, I know), and check out my event guide to see what's happening in our lovely city. Hope to see you out and about at one of these fun events!

Turkey Trot 2019

Get ready for a big Thanksgiving dinner by "trotting" from the World Forestry Center to the Oregon Zoo (approximately 4 miles) on Thanksgiving morning. The proceeds go towards funding animal care and programs at the zoo. There are shorter options available for kids, too, so the whole family can participate in this fun tradition! **Note: there are many Turkey Trots all around Portland and the surrounding areas - if the zoo location doesn't work for you, seek one out in your neighborhood by searching here.**
