Seasons
It's been damp and rainy in Portland for months. I think I've gotten used to the Northwest weather. Sometimes the rain can be annoying, but I love the purples, blues and grays of the city sky. I love the shiny, slick black streets at night, the colored lights relecting off the road in the dark.
Today, though, it was sunny. The sky was clear, and I could see Mount Hood and Mount St. Helens. The sun was bright. I had to wear sunglasses. It was warm, and I was briefly overdressed. I put on a dress and got to feel the sun on my skin. There was still light in the sky after 8 p.m. It shocked me. I had forgotten about summer. It's coming.
