The Phoenix Bird


Phoenix Daily Photo has hit a bit of milestone today.  This is the 2500th post!

I thought I'd celebrate the occasion with one of the many iconic Phoenix Bird depictions that I see around town.  I really should do a series on these various statues.  There are quite a few to be found in our fair city.

    fyi-
    In the history of Portland, a fire took down a great deal of the city in 1866.
    "The city seal depicts a phoenix rising from ashes, which aligns with the city's motto, Resurgam, Latin for "I will rise again." The motto refers to Portland's recoveries from four devastating fires.[5] The city of Portland, Oregon, was named for Portland, Maine."

    I only have 469 more to catch you. 'Course by then you'll probably be nearing 3,000! Congratulations on a milestone.

    Quite a milestone! The phoenix statue theme would be a good one!

    By the way, that Michael Scofield comment is a spammer.
