Urban Fruit Gleaning....

OK..this will be my final post promoting the wonderfully smart town of Portland Oregon. This is a smart idea, I wonder if there is some type of program like this here in the Eastern panhandle? I stand impressed, so simple and provident.

I love you Chef STU....

Only Oregonians eat "man-aise"..

My Merrie Maid....


Today the maid came...she is four-legged and has a crazy-overactive tail. She especially loves making sure the tub is glistening clean! Aren't you excited to come for a visit and bath in our sparkly, clean tubs!
After I snapped this shot Daisy quickly ran off with her tail between her legs like I had "Busted" her eating undies! She really loves to get at the last inch of soapy water before it runs down the drain. Do all dogs enjoy eating bars of soap and licking up soapy water/tub residue? Oh well...simple pleasures.

Road side funny...

"Mom and Dad have been kidnapped by NINJAS..
Please help....
Must have money for KUNG FOO lessons... "
and I quote... please exit ramp poet, guy with the sign, odor challenged person, don't be offended that I have shared your roadside whit with my one or two blog readers.
Portland Oregon must in my estimation have the most creative pan handlers in the world. If this is not the case then they have parent kidnapping Ninjas.
A couple of weeks ago I was in Portland and enjoyed the time I was able to spend with my Mom and family. I also must admit that "Portland" did not disappoint either. Strange, unique, kooky, like no other place, these can all be used to describe my hometown. Where else would you actually feel like tipping the exit-ramp fellows just for their creativity and whit? In addition to colorfully witted pan-handlers Portland also grows all things green in abundance. Here are some pics I took of my Mom's yard.


Here are a few other of my most fav. spots in Portland:

A tree lined street just down from my Fathers old dental office

The house on the top of Alameda ridge that would host a Christmas Bazaar

Mt. Hood


The corner of 24th and Fremont


Perrys on the corner of 25th and Fremont
