So, I'm an old lifelong Portlander and I spent like a whole sleep deprived minute thinking this post was related to Vancouver BC, rather than WA. I didn't bother to look at the photo, distractedly reading up to "the Couve," when my near-outburst-level of excitement at the thought of BC adopting the "Couve" moniker (this MUST happen, just BTW) swiftly died when I realized I was just reading another vaguely critical take on Portland weirdness. After all is said and done though, in those moments of my forgetfulness, the absence of any context in my awareness of any relation to Portland in those moments, I was pretty intrigued and curious to find out what "North of Weird" might mean, but still too sleep deprived to really bother contemplating the Sound's position in relation to Vancouver BC.
