John here.
I am in Portland, Oregan with my Dad for some speaking events and we are having a great time.
We came here to give the keynote speech at the Disability Next Conference put on by Relay Resources. They had great speakers all day long and we met many good people. We spoke about giving jobs to people with differing abilities and how people with differing abilities can make great entrepreneurs just like me.
We also visited the Portland Gigi's Playhouse and met with the founder Brad Johnson. And we spoke to the transition program at a school. I love meeting with younger students and encouraging them.
This afternoon, we are exploring Portland, spending time walking around the Burnside District and the University District. I had lunch at the Pine Street Market, and we will drive out to the Columbia River Gorge.
We are on a mission to spread happiness and to show what people with differing abilities can do That's what we do with our speaking engagements. When you buy our socks, you make this happen. You help us employ people with differing abilities and you help us spread happiness.
I am so grateful for your support.
John
