- Last Day of the Year
In December 2009 I house/ pet sat for my aunt and uncle in Dixon California. I had never been to California.
Besides house privileges I also had the use of their Prius. I was able to travel about quite a bit. San Francisco, Sacramento, Sausalito, Redwood City, Calaveras County.
It was an amazing time that I will...
- Over the Willamette
In Portland, Oregon there are many ways to cross the Willamette River. One of the cities nicknames is Bridgetown. There are something like 10 bridges that cross the river in the PDX area. I think that the prettiest and most architecturally interesting bridge is The St John's Bridge. According to Wikipedia It is the only...

- Lincoln City and Henry Rollins
Recently I went with my friend to Lincoln City on the Oregon coast. She was hoping to find one of the glass floats that they hide. Every year hand-crafted glass floats are placed along the 7-1/2 miles (12 km) of public beach in Lincoln City, from the Roads End area to the Cutler City area....

In 2008 I went to visit a friend's farm in Champoeg, OR. The countryside was quite beautiful. On the way back we came across this tree. I couldn't resist preserving it in my own special way.

- The Death of Creativity
It is not pretty, but I had to make myself finish it.
I recently got a subscription to the Creative Cloud. So I had to play with Animate. I get really caught up in "getting it right"... so much so that I don't do it at all. This is a message to myself to just get...

I broke down and decided to get an Adobe CC subscription....
- Today’s Post Brought to you by the Letter K
My latest endeavor has been teaching myself to use Illustrator. As a friend put it, "The pen tool is the devil." I decided not to let that discourage me. I decided that I need to create something, anything, so that I would feel that I am getting somewhere with the program. The colors are weird...
