April 18th, 2008

In addition to the free events, I wanted to mention two other things going on in Portland on April 19. Both are frugal and help the greater good.

Proceeds from the sale will go to Galapagos Conservancy to fund its efforts to repopulate Pinta Island with Espanola tortoises. Buffalo Exchange has two locations in Portland: one at 1036 W.
