remember be here now

ben and i are officially moving to the mission district in san francisco california for free in exchange for childcare for 2 bombass kids at the end of october. i mostly can't believe it and am unexplainably grateful to our hosts for their generosity. we'll be living in a studio below the house with a loft, kitchen, bathroom and patio. it's crazy talk. it'll be the first time in about 2 years that either one of us has lived without 390283 other people and in a space that is 3 times as big as our entire current apartment. i'm unbelievably excited but also quite sad to be leaving behind a whole lot of folks i love. we plan to relocate our sustainable street art business and to continue to screen print and all that jazz. a new city to explore and fall in love with, lots of new hooligans to meet, rooftops and underground tunnels...oh my my my!

i will miss portland dearly. and everyone in it. but the time has finally come for relocation, meeting the right people, and eventually setting off to travel the west coast any way we can.

California
Where the warm sun shines
California
Hear the wind blowing chimes
Californ-i-a
Though you’re far away
Your love is here today

...just a side note. this is a bingo card from a previous "bingo in the park" which happens in dolores park in the mission every so often. i think it's really great.
