well, this will be my farewell to portland (and vacation) posting and my welcome back to columbia posting, too. for anyone who knows me, it is fitting i spent my last day in portland at the rose city dog show (i am obsessed with dogs and desperately want one of my own when i will actually be home enough to care for him/her) and also with my nearest and dearest at our neighborhood deli, where luci and her dad had an impromptu photo shoot. this is an especially full post, as i had trouble "editing" out any of the dogs, and of course i can look at pictures of luci for hours. now that i am back at school, i will mostly be posting class-related shoots and info for a little while...
