There are 2 or three lunch/sandwich places in Jantzen Beach Center but don't know if those would be where he intended to go. I used to live in the Portland/Vancouver area during university days and that's very close to the Washington side of the river, and Interstate 5 takes you out of the area very quickly. Did he have any memory issues that are known? The area is busy enough had his car just been disabled somewhere he would have been spotted, I would think. 1405 Jantzen Beach Center · 1405 Jantzen Beach Center, Portland, OR 97217
