My (American) friend from Ecuador, originally from Pennsylvania (hates it) but at BU (loves it) will be visiting me at the beginning of the summer! I have made a tenative list of things we'll be doing, but this is going to require more thought.

Suggestions on "Oregonian" things to do?

Things I've considered:
Astoria column (very phallic)
beach (depends on weather, but still fun)
cherry picking - or whatever's in season (Hood River)
Painted Hills - (eastern Oregon)

Portland, of course, perhaps Powells and that area (Sparticus!)...

I'm thinking we'll have about 5 days... :)
