Sunday night drive

[kyrielle]

Sunday night, after visiting my parents, I drove over to Beaverton to go to Craft Warehouse (which was out of what I wanted, but oh well). It has been years since I have driven to Beaverton from there. I still knew the route but it was unnerving going up Albertson, which has changed a bit (more houses) and was in any case just a long gravel road going up with trees, so I never really classified it in my mind. As a result it looked subtly wrong most of the way up. It was beautiful, though - I left Mom & Dad's just at dusk and as I drove up it was dark, and the road is steep and the top of the hill is covered in evergreens and the full moon was above them in a dark blue sky...glorious! Absolutely glorious.

Then down Bald Peak...from there into Beaverton, through Farmington, it all looked very much as expected. I didn't remember it - I'd forgotten Farmington altogether! - but I recognized each turn and spot as I came to it, no problems. And it was an absolutely gorgeous drive with the full moon up.

Farmington would like you to know that its feelings are very hurt.
