McMenamins Thanksgiving

This year we decided on a “Staycation,” in other words, a vacation at home.

Working Friends

My friends instantly changed plans so that they could help me with the UHaul. God bless real friends.

There is no way to live a full life and not leave some things behind as you go.

I made the loop around the Willamette in downtown Portland twice in two weeks.

I attended two plays in a single week in a single building, both stories shaped by the year 1989.

Words DO inflict harm more insidious than is ever evident on the outside.

We had fun for nearly an hour as we explored the fairy homes.

This play took up all the parts of us that are dark, acknowledged them, and then made us feel good anyway.

The longer you gaze out across the waters, or through the branches, the more you see.

Bits and pieces of our smaller adventures in early March.
