yesterday we went to the Mid-Summer's Renaissance Faire w/ john & phillip. it was small & hot, but there were trees and it was charming, not least because it was at the foot of mount hood, which was just stunning. stunning! between it & mount adams, i felt like i had never seen mountains before. even pikes peak just seems shy by comparison. we also diverted long enough on the way home to drive past horsetail & multnomah falls, which seem worth stopping to see again when there are less tourists. and hey, sunscreen actually prevents sunburn!
then michael & i went to dinner at red star for the lipstick librarian's 45th birthday, where i met a whole passel of other psu librarians.
