Good weekend, even though I've been too busy lazy to post about it....

Saturday afternoon, Amy and I went to the Mt. Hood Jazz Festival, mostly to see Annette Lowman, a jazz singer I became acquainted with. Amy and Ms. Lowman have a sort of "Gift of the Magi" relationship - Amy envies Annette's voice, while Annette wishes she had Amy's hair. :) We chatted with her for a while and listened to the next band, then headed out.

Sunday was a day at the pool - Portland has a good public pool system, with clean (but not over-chlorinated) pools and lots of tubes and other water toys for kids and overgrown kids like us to use. However, I really need to work on my swimming - I won't drown, but I'm slow as hell. (And I always seem to swim breaststroke now FSR.)

Tonight is Fastball and Pinehurst Kids at Doug Fir....should be pretty good.

This is a pretty good pool - not too big, not too small, and usually not that crowded. And it isn't overly chlorinated, unlike many backyard pools I've been in...

And Zach Duke is pitching tonight....6 straight wins?
