Counting down to 4th of July fireworks down on the Willamette.  A yearly tradition since we first moved to Oregon over a decade ago.  I’m expecting the crowds to be intense and the MAX ride home will be packed but it only happens once a year so who cares.

This is what morning looks like.  Rolling towards Hillsboro on the westbound MAX.  Everyone is happy and optimistic because they are headed towards another day.  And riding public transportation helps keep another vehicle off the road which goes towards improving the environment.  Yes, the commute is all about positive action.
