Moosey-Moose Eats Gelato!

Hi,

I finally made it out of Powell's Bookstore but only after I got lost a few more times. I found books about bugs, snakes, dinosaurs, plants, pasta, how to make buildings, music, and a whole bunch more stuff! I must have walked around for hours just trying to find my way out of the store. But finally, I found my way back to the center of Portland. By that time I was hungry.

This is me eating a huge scoop of Italian ice cream called gelato! It's better than any old regular ice cream. You should try some if you every have the chance. Yummmy!

Hey, have you heard from Sleepy Bear? Is he super mad at me for leaving town?

Bye for now,

Moosey-Moose

Moosey-Moose Visits Powell's Bookstore!

Howdy Travel Friends!

This is me inside the super duper huge bookstore in Portland called Powell's. It's so huge I got lost! That's why you haven't heard from me in a few days. But, I'm back.

This is me sitting on top of a shelf of books. Behind me is the kids' section. All the sections, are color coded. That's why you see the sign behind me that says "Rose."

I'm going to go browse around. Hope I don't get lost again!

Moosey-Moose and His Huge Snack

Hi,

I did a lot of sightseeing today and I burned a lot of calories. So, I decided I earned this mondo-big chocolate chip cookie! The best part is I don't have to share it with anybody. That's super cool!

Next, I'm going to Powell's - the huge bookstore I Portland.

Bye for now,

Moosey-Moose on the Portland Waterfront

Hi Friends,

Look at me!! This is me looking through a telescope. I put a quarter into the coin collector and then I got to see the city up close but far away at the same time.
This is bridge that splits in half and then both halves move up to let ships and boats go through. That's only for the really tall boats.

This is the waterway and some hotel buildings in the back.

The weather is a little bit cloudy but it's not cold at all. I'm having a great time! This is waaaay better than cleaning cat boxes and filling up bird feeders and sweeping floors at home. But remember, don't tell Sleepy Bear what I did!
Check back later for more pictures of my adventures in Portland.

Where In Portland is Moosey-Moose?

Hi Traveling Friends,

I finally arrived in Portland! It took me 3 whole hours.

Where should I go first? I can travel from west to east.

Or, I can travel from the east side of town to the west side of town. Hmmmm... One direction will take me to Powell's, the really huge bookstore. The other direction will take me to the water and cool sightseeing stuff.
Where to go first??
Check back soon to read all about where my map takes me.
Bye for now,

UH OH! Moosey-Moose Skips Out on His Chores!

Hi Friends,

Isn't this the coolest? I got tired of doing all of Sleepy Bear's chores, and besides, summer is almost over; I couldn't spend it doing chores. So, I took the last chance I had to go on an adventure.

This is me on the dashboard of the car on the way to Portland, Oregon! Can you find it on a map? If I leave Seattle and drive to Portland, how many miles is that?

Am I there yet?

Check back soon for more about my Portland adventure!

Moosey-Moose Does Sleepy Bear's Chores

Hi Friends,

I've been washing dishes all day. My fur is soaking wet. Too bad the weather isn't hot like last week. I could have gone swimming in the dish water and taken a bath at the same time!

I don't know which chore I'll do next. Maybe I can take the rest of the day off! Don't tell Sleepy Bear.

Bye for now,

Hi Friends,

What a miserable way to spend the last month of my summer vacation. I have so many chores to do, I don't know where to start.

1. Feed the birds
2. Clean the cat box
3. Wash dishes
4. Water the plants
5. Dust the furniture
6. Make my bed

This is only some of the things I have to do. What am I going to do? Help!

Unhappy,

Moosey-Moose
