A Melancholy Evening in Portland

Autumn Birches by Albert Bierstadt

Been feeling a little blue today, partly because I haven’t been feeling well, and partly because the loneliness has been creeping in while I was hanging out at the lounge. I was at the Portland Museum of Art for most of the morning, a pleasant surprise as I found most of the art to be…
