PEARL HARBOR LAUNDRY ON THE LINE

Pearl Harbor laundry is the same as any laundry; wet stuff drying on a line. I saw laundry waving in the wind while touring the Ford Island with a Navy man. It was on the back porch of officers’ housing with their name and rank posted in front. A warm breeze furled family business better […]

LOVING LIFE MEANS LOVE IT ALL

Loving life is expected, required. But how do you know if you love life enough? You write a love poem to a loved one that includes everyone on earth. How hard can that be? Your trusted poet blogger here on boomerpdx says, “Do it.”

BLUE HAWAII ON THE LAST DAY

Blue Hawaii is a condition everyone has on their last day, or they’re doing it wrong. It’s the last time you wake up and get ready to hop in the water to say goodbye to the fish and turtles. But maybe you’re packed and don’t want wet stuff in your suitcase? As long as you’ve […]

They were looking around while I watched our seats once the crowd started filing in. From my part of […]

WRITERS WRITE IT DOWN IN KOLOA TIME

Writers write no matter where they are. From Paris to London to Koloa, Kauai, I write it down. From North Bend to Portland to Tigard, I write it down. Is it a good idea? Or a waste of time?

TRAVEL MAGIC: RIGHT SONG, RIGHT TIME

Travel magic starts with the right song. Too often we hear it later and think how good it would have been. It’s the right song after the fact, the song you’d choose in a do-over of where you’ve been. But when it hits right, you know it.

TRAVEL BLOGGERS START AT HOME

Travel bloggers come in all shapes and sizes. They’re not all baby boomers reminding others not to litter in new places. “Put your gum in a tissue and drop it in a garbage can, not throw it out the car window.” But they all bring a sense of obsession about where they are at any […]
