Portland, Oregon: skies...
in 1983 I flew from SF through Portland to Tri-Cities Washington on an engineering assignment, I was a brand new engineer :) The plane stopped in Portland Airport on the tarmac and let off some passengers and took on a few others. Waiting in the plane, I watched out the window, a dark gray cloud cover hung low over the whole area, I had never seen anything like that. It was the middle of summer. I thought I can never live in a place like this... fast forward 1987, we flew up for a weekend and loved Portland and the environment... fast forward to 1990, an opportunity came up and we moved to Portland, and now for 30 years, I have been in Portland... have I gotten used to her ways, I am still not sure :)
please see large :)
