Today we revealed the cover of the 2025-2026 Oregon Blue Book. This labor of love is the culmination of eight months of very hard work, telling story of the state we love. I’m so proud of this. It will be out in March. #oregon #oregonian #pnw #pnwonderlamd

PNW here. That pump situation is not a thing. Also the water doesn’t flow up to California from here. How has it only been four days?

Here’s porcelain bud vase I threw on the wheel last week. It was glazed with Jeff’s Long Beach and had a lovely, long high fire in the kiln. I usually smooth off my exterior throw rings, but I’m glad I left these. The glaze hugs them around the form. #ceramics #pottery #artist

Here’s our State of Oregon Fire Marshal, just out there doing the Lord’s work of helping our neighbors in California. All while delivering a round house kick fact check to the face.

If you’re an Oregonian, you’re hearing a lot right now about housing and homelessness. What you’re not hearing about is ensuring we are building affordable housing so that people already struggling have ready access to fresh groceries … 1/3 #Oregon

The birds have less to say for themselves In the wood-world’s torn despair Than now these numberless years the elves, Although they are no less there: All song of the woods is crushed like some Wild, easily shattered rose. —Robert Frost
