first night

i got off the plane feeling ready for anything and interested in everything. stepped straight outside while the bags unloaded and caught the last red glow of the day. crisp sillhouettes of tall trees with big healthy leaves. they seemed to be strutting with their shoulders way back.

Sacramento

Sacramento, the capital of California, has a pretty old town centre. In a record shop I became friends with Brittany who worked there. She later invited me to a party / concert at one of her friends house which was a very nice event, full of heartful performances from young singer /...

Eugene

Eugene is a quiet, pretty town, with many tree-lined boulevards and a lively university with a beautiful campus. I stayed there for two days with Janee Ahnert, a relative of mine, and her husband Jerry. Jerry used to be a flight photographer and had many interesting stories to tell...

Seattle

To many people of my generation, Seattle is first and foremost known for being the birthplace of Grunge music. My guidebook also reminded me that Starbucks coffee, Microsoft and Boeing have their headquarters up here. Other than that, I knew rather little of what to expect of this...

Friday Harbor

After the visit to the Stockwells I met up with Emma again and we caught a ferry out to the San Juan islands, an archipelago stretching all the way up the Canadian West Coast and into Alaska. Emma grew up on one of these islands and seemed to know just about everyone we happened to meet....

Saint Helens

Barbara Stockwell´s brother Jim and his wife Vicki have a beautiful house right on the banks of the Columbia river, which separates the states of Washigton and Oregon. I had a very comfortable stay there for one day and enjoyed hearing Jim’s tales of his life living in Guam and other exotic...

Portland

The next day Jim drove me to my relative Jim Gorter and his wife Becky, who live in the suburbs of Portland. Portland is known for being a very open-minded place, full of environmentally-conscious arty types. “Keep Portland Weird” is the city´s unofficial slogan - a reference to the urban...
