A week in Portland.
This is what i saw…there’ll be a few more & a cat post on Friday…
Here’s a “common” snapshot from a public place:
Lovejoy Fountain - on the PSU campus - while we were here, the same 3-6 guys gathered here every night
They'ed converse, get loud & argue. Detours were available.
Nice floor.
At the WCI graduation the back of the hall was populated by baby tenders & one cameraguy who couldn’t sit still in a big, loud room at the convention center. Lots of concrete, little speakers on the portable PA. I missed all the words in the boomy mix & wandered around. I enjoyed the floor.

some things from the kitchen
Posted by – October 18, 2009
The afternoon sun, the dishwashing, the distractions.
This is how soap bubbles fit together. This is framed Big on the wall at home.
There’s a lotta stuff on the wall at home…BZ has plans to find an audience for this stuff.
I just have plans to hang out & play with a camera.
I hope that’s gonna work out for us
This started out washing dishes in front of the kitchen sink: Soap Bubbles.
As long as we’re still in the kitchen, here’s some out-of-focus coffee.
Afternoon coffee, sun just -so- just long enough to grab a camera before the coffee filtered through.
I’ve developed an appetite for out-of-focus moments anymore….
Froth on top of the melitta coffee filter, perfectly out of focus.
The pot abuse illusion

Enjoy this, details later…
too involved wth eggs
Detail of a minor illusion
this pot was abused
Just a simple pot to cook in.
For reference, I call it an Eggpan.
It has been totally rehabilitated & remains in use.
I think my mother got it from her mother.
Family history has lots of interesting small & large near-disasters in the kitchen
as well as a few cautionary tales of how the house burned down.
Distractions & innate distractability led to this.
It’s not about art: it’s opportunism…

Sunny day, nice chair, no tweaks
I lived with an old Gibson j-50 for 30 years once. This is not that. Good, though…as Utah Phillips used to say…
I like these with lots of light & no tweaks. Tasty.
Eastman Uptown: it was a sunny day
just one more, with a little tweak…
once more: with feeling

This was lost in the war of the Anglican Schism. Nobody won.

’cause he so long dead.

Red Church posting

It’s long been
a common local sport & destination.
