Portland before the storms

Portland before the storms

Now,
it is October and Oregon,
when autumn seeks the waning warmth
behind old garden walls.

Still,
I'd rather be in Washington
when December and destiny calls.

Come
sit down then,
here among red lanterns, beneath old trees,
come share a cup of kindness by this fountain,
spill your thoughts, sip tea

before we both must choose to go
or never leave.

I plan to be in Portland Wednesday morning.

ME:

Got a ride for tomorrow to catch the bus. I'll have to suffer riding in a '67 Ford Mustang (red). I should be at my sister's in Washington on Wednesday. My itinerary is listed in "Hoarfrost".

Would've bought a ticket, but the 'station' is closed on Sundays. $183 ... just so you know. Can't get there from here. It's a three day trip; however if I catch a bus in the neighboring town it's only two days. I opted for two days.

Turkey did not win the Euros. Spain did! Beating Germany 1-0. My friends in Galicia must be ecstatic. The news in Zimbabwe is dismal at best. Sarah can tell you all about it.

Kansas: 69º at 20:20.
