Dear Liza,
Last week we had weird weather, for Portland. It was near freezing most every night and rarely above 40 during the day, but it was blindingly bright. There was, literally, not a cloud in the sky.
Knowing it couldn’t last, we went for walks everyday, soaking up the vitamin D as well as we could through scarves and fluffy hats.

We saw cats out enjoying the sunshine.

New Tiny Free Libraries appeared, with nice messages as well as books.

Shop windows created fun reflections.

And in our favorite tavern The Belmont Station, wonderful murals celebrate the origins of our local beers.

And that’s only on one walk!!
Love,
Grandma Judy
