Bye.

9 minutes apart on the same day. Facing, I think, NNE and SE.

Hawthorne Church

I think the sign said, "The Winds of Revival are Blowing"

Construction Zone, Present and Future Dog Park, Edge of the Pearl District, Centennial Mills

Twelve years ago I was walking in the "old industrial area" and decided there that I wanted to live in this grey, misty city that smelled like brewing beer. I don't mind the Pearl District, but I do miss the brewery and a lot of the old buildings. I hope they don't mess up Centennial Mills.

Lloyd's Upholstery on Hawthorne

I love the sign. As of a year ago, Lloyd still came to visit. He's in his 90's and sold the business to Viorel, who had worked for him for many years. His work is faultless. It really is old world craftsmanship. Google turns up a rumor that Lloyd's is going to be replaced by a Mexican restaurant.
