it's been a less climatic weekend</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i did notes for work most of saturday</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
friday night we did go to see "seussical" the musical</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
which was actually fun</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i'm not in love with most musicals</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
i love fall leaves</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but in oregon lots of the trees don't turn</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and i feel there's a lack of native</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
deep reds and orange leaves</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
thanks to the japanese maple </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
in are yard next to the non-working waterfall/pond</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
it's getting that in between time in oregon </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
where the rain is happening more often</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and i'm just not ready for that</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
we've ran to smith rock to climb</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
last saturday was "epic"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(because it didn't rain and was sunny)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
mtn biked in the forest on my favorite trail</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
then scooted into tillamook for some squeaky cheese</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
took a walk on coast</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
let the dog run and be so happy</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
touched sea urchins</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
hurried back into town</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and watched my spurs beat the trailblazers in the final minute </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(thanks to my friend getting us $5 tickets in the nosebleed)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
don't worry i wore my cowgirl hat and boots, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and my black and grey</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and maybe yelled at the crowd </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
when there was a dirty foul</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"classy trailblazers, classy"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but i didn't say jailblazers!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i'd root for them any other time...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
other than playing the spurs. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the end.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i may be back. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
may not.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
we'll see. </div>
