Trail to try and goal to win, white road and cool inn
The wind and rain took up residence in the Pacific NW yesterday and along with it, the crud invaded my body. Luckily, I caught it early and if I go to bed tonight around oh.. 7, I should have it beat.
Last Tuesday was our 9th wedding anniversary and we celebrated by going out to McMenamins On the River for dinner. Most would find it unromantic but it has history with us, especially about 20 minutes after we got married. It was a gorgeous night and we watched the sailboats and toasted each other.
Enjoy the intermission with this random picture of Grendel:
On Sunday I attended the first of many plays for the 2009-10 series at Portland Center Stage. A couple of months ago a pushy sales person from PCS called me at work and quoted me a nice price on season tickets. I was weak so I bought them. I go on Sunday nights and that's fine because it means PARKING. I saw Ragtime and enjoyed the production. The set design was sparse and gorgeous. They used moving panels and chairs to make their points and the costumes were fabulous. I went up to the lobby balcony during intermission and took this picture:
Next week I get to see Ben Franklin: Unplugged. Can't wait!
In a couple of days I throw in my tiara as neighborhood leader and hopefully someone else will catch it and take up the reins. If not, then that's fine. My work here is done.
