Stomping Grounds

I'm off to Portland, my old college stomping grounds, with Lindsay...AGAIN...for soccer. Last time it was taking her back to Palo Alto. More old stomping grouunds. This is one of the things I love about competitive soccer. It takes us away from home. Like an extended date with my daughter(s). I go back again in a month with Mal. (Whew, nothing like keeping it equal!). I'm excited because not only do I get to keep up with my sister (impossible), but it's a chance to break new ground. Something about sharing a part of your former self with your child that is something special. And I get to see my Dad. Always a treat. So here we go on another 4 day adventure. Heaven's to Betsy -- where is this summer going?

To Portland, that's where!

(And...you can't pump your own gas there...reason enough to visit!)
