Expressively publishing on the open web since 1996.
Entranced by Portland, Oregon since 2017.
I had a FANTASTIC time boating out on the river…my first time even after having lived here for several years! Also don't miss the gorgeous sunset views the kids and I got to see overlooking Portland's South Waterfront. Breathtaking!
Portland boasts many fine bridges which span the Willamette River, and Tilikum Crossing is no exception. Named after the local Chinook word for people, and opened to the public in 2015, Tilikum Crossing was the first new bridge built in the region since 1973’s Fremont Bridge, and it’s notable for being the first major American bridge to be designed for public transit, bicyclists, and pedestrians—but not automobiles.
Welcome back to my YouTube channel! Kickstarting the next vlog series…a casual record of my life in Portland, Oregon on a regular basis and finding a path forward after a very difficult last two years. In the back half of the episode, I explore the Molalla River Recreation Area!
I finally got a chance to try out the Pergear 12mm prime lens with my Nikon Z fc. Pretty satisfied with the results! (Glad there’s still a bit of fall color left in Portland…)

Having fun with my new polarizing filter and getting that 80’s slide film look. Gazing north along 14th Ave. #portland #oregonexplored #nikonzfc

The recent snowstorm here in #portland was the most snowfall I’ve seen in the city since moving here. It’s all melted now and we’re even getting some sun, but for a few days there it was totally surreal. This is the trainyard near Union Station. Fresh snow with very few tracks in sight!

Take pleasure in this natural treasure!
Embrace your river. Get into it.

When the day goes down on the water town
When the sun sinks low all around
That’s when I know I, I need you now
Yes you’re what I miss
Every little kiss
Every little one, every little one
