Another reason why we love Portland is the arts. Case in point, this summer’s season of Trek in the Park. It was a nice sunny day to be outside in the beautiful Cathedral Bridge Park to watch the show. It was a bit too hot, but the breeze kept things cool. Jasmine used the umbrella to create a pocket of shade.
Emily and I were both surprised about the huge crowd – and they were really enthusiastic. I didn’t know there were so many Trekkies here – or at least fans of ‘free’ theater.
The performance was a blast, awesome sound effects, lots of good Bones and Spock humor, and even some fist fights. They had an encore of an abbreviated version of “The Trouble With Tribbles”. At one point they threw like 100 stuffed animal ‘tribbles’ onto the stage.
