Urban Farm

I took a walk around my northeast Portland neighborhood this afternoon, and turned down a street that I hadn't been on for a few months. I came across three chickens making their way across the street (I had to hold my Labrador back from chasing them - unfortunately, he doesn't quite get the idea of peaceful coexistence yet), and also passed a goat in a fenced yard. I feel like most of Portland is an urban farm; everyone quietly wishing they lived in the country and doing what they can to make that a reality on their standard 50' x 100' lots. If I have to live in a city, this is one I'm happy to call home.
