What I will miss in Portland

We are in this weird liminal period right now, neither here nor there and waiting with a mix of anxiety, excitement, exhaustion, and melancholy. Seems like a good time to post the top 10 things I will miss in Portland. (author's note-- I have excluded any people from this list-- too trite to include real humans)

10. Watching our one tree's leaves change
9. Walking Patch
8. Biking to church
7. the view of the night sky from our porch
6. Victorian Architecture
5. Movies at the Nic
4. the sound of the recycling truck on Monday mornings
3. Snow and lights at Christmas
2. Iced coffee and scones at Big Sky
1. The smell of the ocean at night
