Today was spent down on Southeast Hawthorne in Portland and as you can tell from the photograph above, Portland is as weird as ever. It’s one hell of a way to diet and it certainly sounds effective, unless health and safety are a concern.

And today I have broken the 30 day mark on my post a day project. There is no stopping me now unless I lose internet access.
On my to-do list are such things as doing the FAFSA for my daughter, getting out and doing more photography and of course, deciding on whether to relocate to Minneapolis or not. For now, I am still down in the trenches helping those who just can’t help themselves. Each day in tech support brings me one step closer to meeting that one unique individual who will be so aggravating that it finally becomes the last straw. I’ve only handed in my badge once and in a moment of weakness I came back to this job but the next time it will be permanent.
Until then, I’ll be here waiting for you. Well, maybe not you but you know what I mean.

It is a good example of black & white photography. I want to thank my co-worker Dan for providing me with the most excellent composition that I’ve had to work with in a while. My only regret was that I had to use the camera on my BlackBerry Curve to capture this image rather than my Nikon. But you just can’t let an opportunity pass you by so I used the tools that I had at hand.

Duke City Day
And today is all about Albuquerque, New Mexico. The Duke City. I lived there back in 2006-2007 and loved every minute of it. Why did I leave if I loved it so much? Because I am an Oregonian and can’t handle being away from the Northwest. It’s in my blood. But Albuquerque is a great city.
That’s right, the Isotopes are the minor league baseball team from The Simpsons and they are the real life minor league baseball team in Albuquerque. Amazing. And then there is Satellite Coffee. I am a coffee lover and this is one the biggest things I miss about Albuquerque.
I know that one day my travels will take me back to Albuquerque, but until then, I still have the great memories of having lived in a great city.
