The Weekend Report

Fall and summer crossed paths this weekend on their ways in and out of Oregon. The sun was hot, but the shadows were long and the light inarguably gold.

Went to Hood River to skate but no one had any energy. Ended up on a sandbar in the warm Columbia, wading out to cool off and watching the dogs lunge through shining waves.

Smoke from wildfires turned the sunset hot pink on the way home, and everything felt liminal.

Went to see Dumpster Wizard—an aptly named metal band comprised of our pals—play in a shadowy corner of the Kenton Club, then pit-stopped at The Tannery for a potent drink in a tall thin glass.

Attended Sunday afternoon gathering at the Bracewell residence, skated 'til exhaustion, sent summer off in the best way possible.
