Portland

I flew into Portland OR today. It is such a gorgeous place. It's a big city, but is too cool to feel oppressive. Sort of like Seattle or SF, in that regard. It is quite clean and, generally, has a good feel about it.

And the mountains...

Today, it is very bright and exceptionally lush. The upside of the rain they usually get, I guess.

The flights went great. I had really looked forward to a quiet weekend at home, but now that I'm here, I think I'll like it.

If it wasn't so far from A², I could so live here.
