In Portland, you have to have a rainy day list. Even in the summer. Otherwise, you can find yourself all too frequently frustrated when your outdoor plans get soaked. Just a piece of advice after years of living here.

Number one on your list, until Sept. 16, should be the Rembrandt exhibition at the Portland Art Museum. I happened to inherit a ticket from a friend who couldn’t go, and I’m very much a Romantic Period girl, so the show was really spectacular.

These sort of things can easily get away from us. We plan to go, we plan to go, we plan to go, and then we see that whatever it is has left. Don’t let it happen to you. Heck, you could even go on a sunny day.

Ciao,

Emily
