Landed safely in Chicago . . .On the plane for Portland . . .
In the train station in Portland, where it is SUNNY AND WARM.
We so live in the wrong place.

Why Gannet? Why Search the Sea?
- Gannet Girl
- Gannets are enormous and sleek creamy-white seabirds, with black wingtips, yellow heads and necks, and startlingly outlined eyes. They nest on the rocky cliffs of the European and North American coasts of the North Atlantic and, once grown, spend their days sailing across the ocean. The acrobatics by which they make their living ~ steep climbs into the air and speedy plunges straight into the sea ~ are rivaled only by those of pelicans. What better metaphor for a sweeping search of one's life choices and opportunities than a gannet extended above the waves, a regal and yet restless surveyor of the vast ocean surface? The gannet reminds us that life is an adventure in both beauty and profound unease, and that the sea itself is limitless in its textures and possibilities.

This is why I'm encouraging my dd to go to college in a warm environment as opposed to the frigid snows of upstate NY.
It was sunny here, today, yes...but it was anything but warm. The thermometer said 46 degrees, but the evil Gorge Wind was raging. With the wind chill, it felt more like about 20 degrees. Icky!
All a matter of perspective!
That's still 35 degrees warmer than the windchill temp here two days ago.
Yes...well, I have officially become a Pacific Northwestern wimp when it comes to cold. :D And that Gorge wind will blow the meat right off your bones.
yeah...but i think i'd rather have snow than grey drizzle.
Sunny and warm sound amazing right now. I was enjoying it vicariously through your Key West photos particularly the one with the white church against a blazingly blue sky - please don't tell me if you Photoshopped it.
I realized yesterday that I'm sick of Winter. It's not even February yet which means there is so much more of it coming. The days are noticeably longer though so that helps.
