Sitting at the airport waiting for our flight to Seattle and thence Japan. Don’t know when I’ll be back online again.

Yesterday vanished in a blur of packing, except that we joined Sarah Prince (in town for a wedding) at the Portland Adult Soapbox Derby. This annual event, featuring bizarre handcrafted gravity-powered vehicles, takes place just a few blocks from our house and we’ve never gone. Thanks Sarah for providing the impetus!

And now… here we go!
