i forgot my camera!

tonight i went to a concert in washington park, and i was kicking myself that i left my camera at home. this park was on a crest, from which you could see three volcanoes: mount st. helen's, mount adams, and mount hood. spectacular. clear blue sky, with snow-tipped peaks in the distance.

the park is the home of the international test rose gardens and not only was it a sight for the eyes, but for the nose as well. gorgeous.

again, not to rub it in, but the weather here is exquisite. in the mid 70s every day. and at dusk... NO MOSQUITOES. it's a miracle.

anyway, i went to this concert with about 5 buddies from work (5 bottles of wine between us, with a huge picnic on the lawn) and we enjoyed some amazing music. 1930s jazz harmonies. amazing.

*another* great night. i hate that i forgot my camera.

I have a welt the size of a silver dollar from a mosquito bite. That does it -- I'm moving to Portland. Hey, C, is the guest room ready yet?
