Today was a wet one in Portland. It rained off and on all day and the temperature just barely nudged 50 degrees. The city’s umbrella-wielding pedestrians were out in force. I dodge the rain drops long enough to get a few frames.

The good news is, the rest of the week looks sunny and getting warmer. We may hit 60 degrees this weekend. Something to look forward to, for sure.
