The Oregonian on Instagram: "Urban coyotes are everywhere in the Portland area. They are highly adaptable and agile, able to swim rivers, clear tall fences, climb onto roofs and cross freeways. In the city, coyotes are often a little larger and in better condition than their rural counterparts because food is available year-round. Their menu includes squirrels, rats and other rodents, fruit from decorative trees, Himalayan blackberry thickets and, unfortunately, sometimes small pets left outside. Add in garbage, birdseed and pet food people leave out, and it is easy to see why coyotes do so well here. --@Mark_W_Graves, The Oregonian/Oregonlive Clink the link in our bio to read more about Oregon wildlife."

@Moss My family and friends have all had a hard time finding primary care doctors in the Portland area. And then I read news articles like this one (about doctors who take medicare) so I know it's not just me -

But I did NOT know that some doctors would not even renew a prescription at the same appointment for another issue! WTF?

Anyway, I'm so sorry you're going through this.

New Data Shows It’s Particularly Hard to Find a Primary Care Doctor in Portland

“If I were a leader at the state level, at the local level, I would be really interested in trying to understand why Portland is such an outlier.”

Lol I can’t get a primary care doctor at any “real” clinic in #PDX or any city within reasonable driving distance, so I use Zoomcare for primary. Every few months they change their policies about which of their employees and locations is allowed to be a “primary care”. Today I miraculously got the same PC as last year, at a nearby location—but on arrival they told me I would have to make separate appointments *on separate days* for each different concern I wanted to inquire about. For example I couldn’t get a prescription renewed on the same day I get an annual exam. *jazz hands* #healthcare!

Just a reminder, I have some cool old bikes for sale still! Details on my Buy Me A Coffee page. It is pinned to my profile.

Unfortunately, I can't be flexible with the pricing. The only profit I will be making is from my labor building each bike. Trying to be fair as possible.

I might be pushing my luck, but I am going for a bike ride later today. Hoping I can afford to stop for coffee and a pastry at a family owned Mexican cafe and bakery up the street.

The house is nearly empty, most everything important is on its way south. It's time for the move.

We're lucky we have our Tallahassee daughter that has the time and ability to keep an eye on us. Our son and PDX daughter are helping to make the transition easier. Back with my wife, new subjects to photograph, new water to fish. Should be good.
