HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY EVERYONE!For years Portland has been haunted quite happily by the mischievous spirit of Valentine's Day in the form of a flurry of red hearts on white paper strewn with care over the city's downtown edifices. Last year they even mounted a giant one off the roof of the Portland Museum of art, seen here in my photo from that snowy morning.
This year the hearts sprang up anew, bringing a spring to downtowners' steps that would not have otherwise been there as we tried to manuever ourselves safely through the morass of slush and ice that has laid seige to us over the last few weeks.
The Portland Phoenix gave a very friendly nod to the Valentine Bandit in a great little article printed in their latest issue. You can read it online here: http://thephoenix.com/article_ektid56293.aspx
LONG LIVE THE VALENTINE BANDIT!!!
