Half-Empty / Belly-Full
Half-Empty / Half-Full, originally uploaded by leslie stroope.
Last night a my lovely yogi/artist friend, Lisa arrived into Portland and wondered if there was anything “Portland-y” to do, maybe with live music. Just so happens I had read this post about Kruger Farm’s ordeal with a city ordinance over bike races on their farm. And it mentioned their Summer Concert that evening!
So we jumped in the car, and headed off into the sunset for some BBQ, berry picking, homemade lemonade, and of course, Portland-brewed beer.
We took some lovely pics, some yoga poses in the sunset, naturally, and had a peaceful wander in the raspberry bushes. It was right after the sprinklers had shut off so the ground was squishy, the air was cold and damp… quite dreamy. We ate more than we bought home, but I think that is the way things are done around here.
why forever?

There is a flower Within my heart, Daisy, Daisy! Planted one day By a glancing dart, Planted by Daisy Bell! Whether she loves me Or loves me not, Sometimes it's hard to tell; Yet I am longing to share the lot - Of beautiful Daisy Bell! Daisy, Daisy, Give me your answer do! I'm half crazy, All for the love of you! It won't be a stylish marriage, I can't afford a carriage But you'll look sweet upon the seat Of a bicycle made for two. We will go 'tandem' As man and wife, Daisy, Daisy! 'Peddling' away Down the road of life, I and my Daisy Bell! When the road's dark We can both despise P'licemen and 'lamps' as well; There are 'bright lights’ In the dazzling eyes Of beautiful Daisy Bell! Daisy, Daisy, Give me your answer do! I'm half crazy, All for the love of you! It won't be a stylish marriage, I can't afford a carriage But you'll look sweet upon the seat Of a bicycle made for two. I will stand by you In 'weal' or woe, ["weal" means prosperity] Daisy, Daisy! You'll be the bell(e) Which I'll ring you know! Sweet little Daisy Bell! You'll take the 'lead' In each 'trip' we take, Then if I don't do well, I will permit you to Use the brake, My beautiful Daisy Bell!
