Rose City Roller Derby

I’ve been wanting to see some Roller Derby since I moved here.

From now on, when I see a new one, I’ll be grateful for the reminder to engage with my life while I am living it.

Redhead Event 2013

And since the word came up, I’ll say a little about Ginger. Here it is: I want to use the word!

Portland Pride 2013

The first part was somewhat short in length and we became lost without a moment’s hesitation!
