I’d love to know what your favorites are, so feel free to comment! In the meanwhile, MY favorite quote from the Migis Hotel Group holiday party last night at Portland’s Bayside Bowl; Wow! We should have brought more baskets! Look at all the stuff people brought! Our colleagues from Migis Lodge, Black Point Inn, the Inn at Ocean’s Edge and The Colonial Inn are feeling the holiday generosity.
That, in response to the request for items for Good Shepherd Food Bank. Overflowing!

Favorite food? Anchovy and pineapple pizza. Wow, was that great.
Wait. May I have two visual favorites? Two beautifully expectant mothers. Here’s one.

Mama mia!
And, on the streets of Portland, the dazzling works of Pandora LaCasse, once a member of the MHG team herself.

Old friends going back 20 and 30 years (one who looks suspiciously like S. Claus), new ones (“Hey! Did you get a picture of my strike?”), all getting to know one another better in the spirit of hospitality! Thanks, Tim and Joan and Jed, for your examples and demonstrations of attention to people, details, and generosity.
