blue, iris, view
This is the reason I fell in love with Portland....
And, why I now miss it so much.
The sky has not been that blue or that clear since we left for DC. Here, the horizon is crowded by one concrete park after the other; green and blue are distant objects and silence is a rare commodity. Hundreds of motor vehicles compete for the streets and thousands of feet for the sidewalks. The air is constantly filled car horns, police, ambulance and fire truck sirens, airplanes whizzing and helicopters flying over. Smog and pollutants stink the surroundings and humans and non-humans are always moving in one direction or another. Smiles are always reserved for a selected few and courteousness is a rare commodity.
Yes, welcome to DC: the land of the plenty – of self-important people that is. Some people are in love with DC, some people are indifferent to DC, and some are just passersbies....

With blue sky and black silhouettes of trees...?
