One evening last week I looked up in the sky after deboarding the Max and saw this.
Evidently, I was not the only – you could see it all over Portland. To wit:
- A picture from SE Hawthorne
- A picture from wherabouts unknown
- Another from NE Portland
- And another from whereabouts unknown
So what was it all about? Portland Metblogs had the story including a link to the Neighborhood Notes website. A number of personal blogs covering it included gretchin lair, Magpie Ima, The Pearl Insider and Damn Portlanders where you can find pictures of the whole message.
I didn’t see any writing until they were on the last word. I couldn’t really read “moon” or “ice” so I watched them write several letters before I knew what that last word was. “Cool” was the right word for the experience!
