Day in Portland!  

Great weather day, we walked 10 miles just enjoying this unique city and "killing time" until our evening plans.

Good-bye, old friend!

It was really tough to pitch you in the trash today, but its time.  Probably past time.

I bought you in Thailand in 1990 and carted you home, named you Duckie.

You slept with me a few nights in my Long Beach childhood home.
You made the trek to Seattle and lived with me in the room above my grandparents garage.
You were there for our little apartment on Eastlake.
And our first house purchase in Federal Way.
The relocation to Aberdeen.
You got kicked out of the bed sometime around the move to Longview due to allergies but were still a friendly face.
As we look toward our tiny apartment in Seattle, I bring only memories and smaller momentos.

Staycation this week.  Working systematically through the house clearing out items and dust bunnies.  First stop, front hall closet.  Found 17 fedoras lurking.

Pokemon Community Day!  I'm sure people at the lake wonder why there are so many people milling around as phone zombies.  For three hours the spawns are mostly Bulbasaur and the very first one I caught was a sparkling shiny.

Busy social day... church, community day, movie with small group...

Today was a day of marches for gun control.  Even in little ol' Longview.  And guess who was at the front of the pack?!?

My sister sent me a new welcome mat for my birthday!  Good thing, since Bruce won't let me replace the worn out one!

Gorgeous colors in the sky for our evening walk.  Hate daylight savings time, but do enjoy more evening light.

Coffee at Red Leaf before we part ways.  The 'rents are off to church to hold baby Sierra, the kids are driving home.

Little bit of work, little bit of exercise, and a lot of eating today.  Happy to not be the 24 hour joggers at the lake.

OK, Dave Ramsey, you have been a big part of my life for the past year, but now I'm kicking you out!  It's been a fun adventure, wish I would have tackled it sooner.

Miles and miles and more miles on the road.  At least it is a pretty view!

I was in charge of picking a lunch stop on our way to Sedro Wooley.  I didn't know this burger joint was vegetarian only, I swear!  Bruce was a good sport as he enjoyed his "meaty" patty.

Spellebration at the Kelso Theater Pub.  I wish the spelling bee had easier words so I could play along easier, but fun.

I've always wanted a reading nook.  Ta da!  Carved out a corner of the computer room.

Getting the house put back together.  Slightly different, because the house is slightly different.  Open shelving, empty places look stark.

I will miss K-mart, but it was really fun to scour the aisles for deals in Chehalis today.  Shoebox ministries are well stocked for a bit...
