        I took this photo as I was walking over the Hawthorne Bridge at night during the Rose Festival. The city lights were breathtaking and I had to capture the moment!<br /><br /><a href="http://www.platial.com/post/91839">Map this on Platial</a><br />

<title>Garbage Run</title>
<description>
        <![CDATA[
        Portland is very recycling-conscious.  My apartment building punishes garbage-making by hiding the garbage cans in the most unpleasant cavern of the basement.  Here is my pictorial journey to the garbage dungeon.

<title>Footprints</title>

        Starting in the wee morning hours two friends and I chalk stenciled footprints leading here from the Ondine up to campus along Broadway. They leaded into Smith and then out into the Park Blocks.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.platial.com/post/91424">Map this on Platial</a><br />

<title>Found a fish</title>
<description>
        <![CDATA[
        While walking back from the Goodwill Superstore on MLK. Blvd, I stumbled across this fish. Apparently someone had taken a whole fish (I don't quite know what kind) and pinned it between the chainlink fence and its poles. It seems it had been there for a while. Very weird.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.platial.com/post/63851">Map this on Platial</a><br />

<title>Free Easter Jelly Beans</title>
<description>
        <![CDATA[
        On Easter Sunday I went for a long walk. I found a fish pinned against a chain link fence, and then this - a paper plate filled with jelly beans sitting on the bench within a bus stop. A tongue depressor held a small sign that read "Happy Easter", and written on the lip of the plate it read, "Happy Easter. Enjoy some jelly beans." It should be noted that this was down the street from the local methadone clinic, and across the street from a bar called The Vern.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.platial.com/post/63855">Map this on Platial</a><br />

        I was walking towards downtown Portland today along Burnside. I came across this sign. Man, I never knew it was this easy. That's fucking great.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.platial.com/post/63898">Map this on Platial</a><br />

<title>Two House Soup</title>
<description>
        <![CDATA[
        While house-sitting, I decided I could no longer live on burritos and pierogi from the freezer. I drove two miles to my house, and began to make soup with beautiful, fresh vegetables. My housemate said, "Man, let's go back to the house-sit to do laundry and check email and watch movies." In the names of WiFi and TiVo, a simmering pot of soup was transported from Southeast 16th to Southeast 56th, at around 7.00 PM.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.platial.com/post/64037">Map this on Platial</a><br />

<title>Hundreds of Miles Out of Katrina's Path</title>
<description>
        <![CDATA[
        Last week a work crew came through with a spectacular brushcutting machine and cleared all of the blackberry thickets along the side of Holgate Boulevard. Beneath a large billboard that read "Health Care with a Heart" I noticed some scattered rags and discarded shingles. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a little campsite, with two distinct residential areas. Although the camp's walls had been mulched, its floorplan and features were still clearly visible: an improvised brick staircase; sleeping areas shelled in salvaged canvas awnings; a fine layer of cedar chips sprinkled around all of the living areas to inhibit fleas and bedbugs; a depot of old bottles containing greenish-brown liquids; a carefully crafted firescreen made of artificial pine boughs. Stepping back to look at the scene, surrounded by a vast meadow of shattered blackberry canes, I was struck by how intensely familiar the patterns in the wreckage were, and how much they resembled the footprints left by a tornado wandering among the dwelllings of mankind.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.platial.com/post/91854">Map this on Platial</a><br />

<title>The Human Face of Conoco-Philips</title>
<description>
        <![CDATA[
        The owner of this 76 station used a take-home mosaic kit to create a charming medallion to place in the flower beds next to the pumps. I think this represents a very real interaction between human frailty and larger, corporate imponderables. Through gestures like these I believe our creativity will soften the perceived boundary between tradition and capital.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.platial.com/post/91859">Map this on Platial</a><br />
