I was perusing the pictures on my handy little point & shoot, and this photo from the farmer’s (and, apparently, butchers) market in downtown Portland suddenly caught my eye. Funny how sometimes the humor of a shot eludes one until much later. The sausages were delicious, by the way.
There are certain advantages to having a small pocket camera while driving along the cliffs and hair-pin turns above Sig Sur. One is that you can snap photos with one hand while steering and shifting with the other. Oh wait. Not a good idea.
