It's time once again, for the blog post I eventually get around to writing.
This week, I made my monthly pilgrimage to my "blond boyfriend" and had him cut my hair. The NW 23rd area of Portland is not an easy place to find a parking spot so I often have to park many blocks away and walk to my appointments. I take pictures of the houses and anything else I find along the way. This week I took a picture of the trees and the fall colors.
After my appointment, I did not want to buy groceries or do any of the domestic chores on my list, so I drove up to the
International Rose Test Garden and took some pictures and enjoyed the quiet.
My first stop was this fountain in Washington Park. No one was around and the air was heavy with fog. It was quite lovely.
Then Sacajawea posed for me before I drove to the roses.
There weren't many people there and parking was easy for once.
The amphitheater had someone sitting and meditating. I wanted to join her but it was too wet.
Portland even posed for me.
I have a list of stuff to get done this week including meeting with the NEW chair of our neighborhood association and showing her the ropes. We're having new friends over for dinner this weekend and the house needs a good scrubbing.
