Here we are in Portland. Just settling in and getting ready to leave to Australia for 6-months. After living in Arizona for nearly twenty years it is quite an exciting time.
We love Portland. Here is a picture of our living room. You can see the forest trees in the back yard.
Emmanuel is very happy at the Providence Cancer Insitute. He spends long hour working in the lab, but is getting exciting results in the lab.
I have been busy setting up the house and exploring Portland. I have been facanated by the light here ... it is so difffernt that the strong desert sun. I have been trying to capture it with my photograpy and painings. I am working on several watercolors this week. I haven't done them in ages, but somehow they seem are able to better capture the light here. I have been quite taken by Monet's paintings in ways that I never have before.
