Arika was the perfect hostess when Kathy and I were visiting. She spent a lot of her time showing us the sights and patiently waiting while each of us went off in different directions so that we wouldn’t get lost…

Arika visits Portland regularly once a year. She has a terrific Dutch bike she keeps in our basement. Here she is just after locking her bike. We are on a mission to find a dog coat for Molly. Kathy and I convinced her to choose the red one. Arika reported back that Molly looks like Santa Claus in the coat.
