COVID-19

 As it was for everyone else, 2020 was a year of not getting out much for us. 

But before the first lockdown, we were able to visit a few things.

We went on a walking tour of some of Portland's civic buildings.

We saw this critter at City Hall:

And these critters at the Mark O. Hatfield U.S. Courthouse:

This wall inside that courthouse was eerily prophetic for the year:

A dear friend came to visit us, and we went to see the Freakybuttrue Peculiarium. Many oddities to enjoy there, including a Space Chihuahua!

We went to a manga conference, not realizing that's what it was. A new culture for us! You could win this car in a contest; strangely, we forgot to enter the contest:

And near the end of February, we took a quick trip to San Diego to visit friends and family. Here is a door to a canyon:

Here's what's on the other side of the door:

And then we spent the rest of the year visiting only places like the MCU and other galaxies far, far away--and taking brief walks around our neighborhood. Masked up, of course!
