We had an absolutely gorgeous 4th of July weekend in Portland this year. It got a little toasty (high 90s!), but the sun was out so I’m not complaining. You can’t count on a nice 4th of July around here. In fact, people who live in the Pacific Northwest have a joke about how sunny summer weather doesn’t start until July 5. In fact, quite the opposite happened this year. The weekend was beautiful, and today is gloomy with a threat of rain.
July is my favorite month and I’m usually so busy enjoying the outdoors that almost everything else gets put on the back burner. We are blessed with precious few months of good weather in Portland. I’m not going to waste it by staying home and cleaning! Here is where I was on the 4th of July this year. Doesn’t get much better than this!
