In case you're wondering just who writes most of these stories and manages this site, it's me, Colleen. I am a yoga teacher and writer who has lived in Fo-Po for about 2 years now. Anyway, I just wanted to put up a post to let y'all know that I'm back. You'll see more stories, more interaction, and generally more updates here at FosterPowellPDX.com. (Perhaps you've noticed the new header?) The last few months were some of the busiest in my life, so I hope you'll forgive the gap. Anyhoo, to wrap up this year, I thought I'd feature some user-submitted photos from one of the biggest Foster-Powell news stories from 2009: the Marysville elementary fire. Daniel J. emailed a batch of photos from this event. You can see all of his pictures at http://www.flickr.com/photos/9ine6ix/sets/72157622654152237/.
By the way, you can upload your own stories, photos, and videos to this site. If you'd like your story to show on the front page, let me know by sending me an email at FosterPowellPDX@gmail.com. And if you're looking for a suggestion of what to upload...how about some pictures of your holiday lights? :)
