Smell that? Taste that?
You don't?
Me neither!!! That's the un-smelly, un-smokey flavor of ALL of Oregons restaurants and bars as of January 1st. As someone who cannot stand coming home after an otherwise lovely night out, smelling like an ashtray, I couldn't be happier about this NO SMOKING law taking effect.
Rock on healthy lungs!
And, in other good news, laws will also take effect that put a 5 cent bottle deposit on all plastic water and flavored water bottles, and you can now recycle all TVs and computers at Oregon recycling stations for free!
Oregon, I love you and all your forward-thinking citizens!

We live in a great place! I wish more places were this environmentally friendly!
We went to the Observatory last night and stayed far longer than we typically would at any bar... about 3 hours in (playing cards, talking with neighbors, etc.) we were shocked that we had stayed so long! So great!
oh yes, this new no-smoking law is soooooo exciting! thank you for the comment on my blog...I'm looking forward to exploring yours! happy new year!!!
good for Oregon! i live in LA, so luckily we went smoke-free a while back. it just seems like all major cities should take a more aggressive approach to being environmentally friendly...or else we have no planet to work with!!
