.(Real picture of hideaway lake. Not taken by me. Found on google image, stolen from some nice person's flickr account.)Petunia’s as old as I am. I push my finger into the broken speaker on her foam dash. It’s funny, I say, that plastic won’t decompose, but it will break down into smaller pieces. Petunia’s dash … Continue reading 5 Speed DIES

We’re Taking This Show On The Road.
Portland, can be so good good good sometimes. Especially when it's hot and September is the July you never had, and there's fruit all over the sidewalks (in spite of freezing frost-spring) and vaux's swifts make dragon-shapes in the sky and then smoothie into a chimney that's the only standing hollow old-growth left, at this … Continue reading We’re Taking This Show On The Road.
