AHH YES...PORTLAND!

SALEM?

Arrived at our new, albeit temporary Salem domicile on a pleasantly warm late afternoon.
The old Victorian home, circa 1895, glistens with original hardwood and lush tall ceilings...original fireplaces are huge!
It's only a mile or so to the Oregon State Capitol.
The quasi Air bnb suite is a wonderful respite from the scandalous housing situation in the SF Bay Area.
More on Salem coming soon.
Ok...so this Saturday morning it's raining.
Sitting amidst the talking buzz of crowded
Beanery Coffee House...my new home away from home...where you No one is talking  tech or how much they're paying
To rent a couch in SF! And there even some smiling face....fancy that!
