If it’s March and it’s Oregon it must mean, (gasp!) rain. Don’t get me wrong, I love the rain and I love Oregon but this entire week has been hellish at work so when I ended up staying late tonight I was not entirely pleased to find myself standing in the rain getting soaked. But it is what it is. If nothing else, I have another photograph to add to my collection. Fellow Oregonians, remember, summer is a mere 4 months away. Maybe.
I woke up this morning and peeked out the bedroom window and was greeted by a brisk, sunny landscape. Granted, the landscape included a view of the trailer park behind my apartment complex but still, it was gorgeous. The ride into work was chilly but enjoyable and it got me to reminiscing about my days back in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Mornings on the high desert are just like this, chilly and sunny with clear skies as far as you can see.
Another random item is this. Portland keeps getting all this recognition as being a bike friendly city yet I find it to be one of the more hostile places to ride a bike. Albuquerque was downright hospitable and safe.
Dig it. I’m losing focus now but just remember, do not discount Albuquerque when it comes to bike friendly places in the United States. And for the record, I love Oregon.
