Well, I have been back for almost a week now. I'm not totally settled in to life in Minneapolis, but I have come to terms with the fact that my summer in Portland has come to an end, at least for now.
So, too, this blog must come to an end. Hopefully, it will begin again next summer, but in the meantime, you can find me at Winter in the Cities.
So, drink a latte and imagine the rain. Read a Willamette Week or two. Soon it will be Summer in Portland again.

Maybe next year your boys will be enjoying that scene with you and it will be an entirely new and different adventure!
Posted by: pam at September 11, 2004 9:13 AMHi, Laurene. I am finally using the blog!
Hopefully, it's still sunny here in Portland
though I wonder until when it lasts...
By the way, regarding a latte, the best latte
in Portland, I believe "Coffee People", but
they have changed their trade mark.
It's a little disappointing to me.
I wonder how other Portlander or Oregonian
feel about the new mark.
I will e-mail you, too.
Bye.
