Time travel

Sketch has considerable eccentricity in old age. He expresses agitation and discomfort but stops immediately if he can ride shotgun on a car ride.

Today we drove through NW Pdx, where I happily lived in the 80s. This era of Pdx had two theater directors and a composer on the city payroll (!! in parks & rec !!). The neighborhood was bohemian, "the way Greenwich Village used to be," said my agent.

Gentrification began in the 90s, leading to the white techie bike-riding suburb of SF that is Portland today.

Today, lots of young folks out spending lots of money on brunch and $5 pints of beer. Not my kind of place.

Come on, Russellville!
