Today I sort of almost got into an accident. I was driving home from Howe Park. There was construction, and a lane was blocked. It's hard to explain what happened, but in a moment of panic, I made the choice to run over a traffic cone. I thought I would just go over it. But the traffic cone got stuck under the front of my Blazer, and I had to pull over to pull it out.

This afternoon I went to the library to pick up two guidebooks to Portland. Best Places Portland looks good (I was reading about them on Amazon). Frommer's Portable Portland is small, and I don't seem to be its target audience.
