Yeah, monocultures are not resilient, but yet some people abhor diversity - weird.

I have not had a chance to explore Minneapolis, but I have noted when flying in and out (nice airport by the way), that it is a marvelously green city. The stats you provided earlier speak to that, but it also seems to be an abundance of street trees. Is that the case?

Agreed. If I had to live in a city, I would want it to be a place with as much nature and as pleasant a vibe as Portland.

I wondered what was happening last night. I saw large numbers of people walking in as I was leaving. Such an amazing place to have in your community.

Magical

It has been quite busy - great conversations today, but not much time to explore. I lived in Portland for a while (a long time ago), but have not been back for some time. Thank you for asking.

It is a majestic peak.

This report makes me wish Blue Sky had a loath option. Thank you for posting though. Hopefully it gets hung up in court long enough for a drastic change in our government to occur.

I had to winnow the selection down to four for the post, and eventually, I had to stop taking photos because I was not making progress towards my destination. The variety and colors were awesome.

Thank you. The lighting was just right.

Thanks Eric! I saw a headline suggesting JT is starting another tour. Guessing they won't make it to MT though.

Thank you - admittedly there was little skill involved there, but still . . .

Yeah, I love the sentiment of that song. I appreciate you taking the time to reply.
