Modern sensiblities in Luann

So Brad didn’t do the asking? My mouth gaped a bit and then I waited for him to “take back the proposal” as happens on the rare occasions when women in TV and movies propose to their men. But so far that hasn’t happened.

Stonehenge

This area seems like someone’s hobby rather than job. Maybe it’s where the construction crew working on the apartment complex nearby takes their breaks? At any rate, someone is having some fun. Check out the bricks on the left.

Gas Station

I love the look of this building, run down though it may be. For the five-plus years I’ve lived in North Portland, this has been a rough-around-the-edges car repair place. From the looks of the RV parked on the lot, I surmised that the owner lived on site. The whole lot was always full of rusted out cars.

So imagine my surprise one day when I noticed that everything was gone. What happened? Did the owner die? Run out of money? Decide to see the world? Retire? Also, what happened to all those non-working cars?

There’s a for-rent sign, so maybe something new will appear there. I doubt it though. I see a tear-down in the cards for this lot.
