I've been gone from my beloved Portland Metro area for some time..

My family and friends are gone now, not because of war zone, but retirement and moved to be closer to family.
How is my beautiful Portland tonight? I have best friend and family coming to OHSU for doc visits in October.

No matter what the bs on the news. Portland is a beautiful city. Lovely, friendly people. Amazing landscape!
