getting settled
We arrived in Oregon last Friday, and I’m liking Hillsboro so far; there’s a nice mall 5 minutes walk from our apartment and all the supermarkets and big-box stores anyone could want, but you can be driving beside planted fields … Continue reading

photos!
I was right – it’s not really possible to take great crowd photos if you can’t get up above them. But I had to at least try. This is just the queue for an ATM – a very uniformly-colored queue. … Continue reading
