[ETA 2/27/2024: I was sad and lonely when I wrote this, more than now, and I actually love Washington State and probably even slightly prefer it to OR as a state, though they're very similar in any case. But I prefer the Portland metro area to everywhere!]

I discovered a new song!
Well, it's from 2012 and I think won a Grammy, but I hadn't heard it before. I was making a PNW-themed playlist (shh) and browsing brought up Esperanza Spalding's "City of Roses." It's about Portland, of course, and a jazz paean to Portland with lyrics about loving the bridges, the greenery and parks, the waterfront, the farmer's market and its people, the music, etc. I loved it!
