Madame Medusa

It's been a year since we lost our precious little princess Layla (right). This was taken during last year's Oregon trip when she got to hang with Pearl the golden lab at our friend's high desert home at Powell Butte. #chowchows

We listen to Morning Edition and our local host Owen was announcing several local music performances on tonight. For one he said (very clearly): "Rock, Fuck, and News", then he chuckled and corrected this to "Rock, Funk, and Blues". We didn't hear the next one because we were laughing so hard.

Govan, WA Burned to the ground in the 30s and only the school and a couple of houses survived. One of the five ghost towns highlighted in the Inlander in late Sept.

I am part of the influx today because I had a very rough time of it last week. Grateful for my bodhisattva @Hal Rowe for lighting my way forward. One way or another this darkness got to give.
