portland, or || may 2013
May was exciting – I finished my freshman year of college & moved home for the summer, and a week later, I flew out to Portland, Oregon for a week. Two of my best friends from school, Andrew and Gillian, live in Portland, and Gillian’s family was generous enough to house and feed me for [...]

The first day I came home for winter break I walked down to the beach with my newly-fixed RB67 and felt overwhelmed by the familiarity of the colors of a foggy day, the subtle grays and browns.
