THE MENSHER FAMILY. {PORTLAND}

The Menchers have chickens. And butterfly bushes. And vintage MILK signs. And a garden that is growing. They have a house with big windows and a kitchen filled with light; and they have a little girl with bright eyes who lives in a room the color of the sky. Also, they are rad.

On the day that we hung out, we went for a walk on Mt Tabor and the sun was like diamonds through the leaves. Together, they walked along trails, waded through grassy hillsides, and stood underneath the pine tree shadows. The sun sunk behind the leaves and I parted ways with this sweet little family and the orange-lit Portland evening was like a summer blanket around us all.
