I’m on a roll! I wasn’t sure I’d make it out on a bike today, but an errand presented itself and saved the day. I didn’t bring the kids along, but they got their exercise via dog walks, twosquare, and a rainy family jog earlier in the day. For the errand, Pixie the chiweenie and I biked to my 7th grader’s English teacher’s house to pick up a couple books from her porch. Online learning starts for Portland Public Schools students next week.

The streets were nice and quiet and it was the first time I’ve seen the parking lot next to Assembly Brewing empty so we stopped to admire the great mural by Ashley Montague.

Today’s flashback is to April 2, 2015, when we lived in Seattle and the viaduct was still up. The deep-bore tunnel bore, Bertha, had finally been extracted from its long clusterstuck. My older kid used to wear a Blue Angels flight suit every day back then, awww.
