    I chowed down on this vegetarian(maybe vegan) Ethiopian "Taco" from the Portland Farmers Market. Forgot the name of the place but it was tasty!

    If you are into meditation, nature therapy or just relaxing,  give this a try. I found a peaceful spot by the river and floated on my back. Try it closing your eyes!

    This is the view of Oaks bottom wildlife refuge.  Not much wildlife in sight, but it was a nice view,

    Every summer I struggle to keep the fruit flies at bay. This year I installed some carnivorous plants as an alternative to disposable options such as fly paper. They've been working like a charm!
