The Experience
I love this city; I do.
I love the weather: it’s snowing. It’s cold. I don’t recall pre-Thanksgiving snow in my past, ever. It’s gorgeous.
I love Spanish Coffees: Warm, in my hands; strong, on my tongue. It’s cold outside, but I am warm.
I love American Football: completing the mood of this calm evening, cold outside, warm inside.
What I’m saying is I love this city and my experience in it.
So, barring any unforeseen bouts of laziness or lack of will, this blog will return (at least for 6 more posts) as a compendium of what it is about Portland and the Portland experience that continues to compel me.
And Melissa, too. Melissa, my partner in crime, my regulator and motivator, is equally enamored by the Portland experience and (I feel) has just as much to say as I do.
