And a great HAC meeting it was. We even discussed nudge words.

Whether the sun is out or not, he always has an aura about him.

So, I'll say it, Thank you, Suzanne! Thank you for reading my Raven series. It was so nice of Scott to let me piggyback onto his journal. I feel honored because he and Rachael are legends in the cycling world and Scott's journals are wonderful. How he can continue to do them is a wonder. I know they are a lot of work.

Yes, I had to mull over what my nudge word would be. I have always packed maybe too many things into my life but as I get older I need to draw a lot of the projects to a close. You said, 'focus' and I think that is a great nudge word.

Anyway, thank you for following along and for your insights. I knew Scott and Rachael needed their car and bikes to make their way back to Portland. It was a fun little trip for Andrea and myself. Glad to do it.

Thanks for telling us that. I’d meant to ask, but assumed you’d picked it up in Asia. Beautiful.

We're all just a bunch of elderly antifa.

And this one too.

Why, yes. I did make that.

There are so many of us who gratefully came to use this website when we found that other one so unpalatable 😊

What Portlandia really looks like.

No need for a description, for I know the scene well. Our neighborhood, downtown Portland and along the waterfront all have no go, no park zones where the sidewalk is more or less permanently whitewashed beneath a roosting tree, with no point in cleaning it up.

Oh. A misunderstanding. I don’t have a theory about the mountain. I have a Theory ABOUT the mountain.

Yup. Big bird, small bird.

That’s what I thought when I spotted it. Pretty great of him to spread his wings like that for me.

I’m so excited to get there! Warmer weather, lots of biking and hiking trails with a lot of friendly people. I hope you are both doing well and it looks like we will might see you in Annecy. I’m crossing my fingers.
