Bittersweet announcement: Today is my last day writing for the @HillsboroTrib. It's been an honor and a privilege to tell so many stories, and I appreciate the community's acceptance and support over the last nine months.

@JCGonzalezOR @HillsboroTrib I will miss running into you around town and the many great stories to tell at Centro Cultural. I look forward to the Governor's race!

@libraryhillary @HillsboroTrib Kirkland area. Downtown library has always treated me well, and you can watch ballgames from the windows.

@swvalley @HillsboroTrib I'm coming back to Kirkland purely to photograph George Reidy.

@libraryhillary @HillsboroTrib If there's no Library of Things where I'm going, is it worth the trip?

[John William Howard @JowardHoward]

@jhpot Stay in touch! Best of luck with all you do.

[John William Howard @JowardHoward]

@jhpot It's been great getting to know you, Justin. I wish we'd have had more time other than the few minutes before and after council meetings.

[John William Howard @JowardHoward]

@wcclslibrarian Not with the same fondness as Portlanders with their Rose City. Good luck with retirement!

Huge thanks to the staff at the Tribune and News-Times for giving me a shot and helping me be successful. I will be pursuing a non-newspaper position in the Seattle area. On to the next grand adventure!

They're the only two female K-9 handlers working patrol dogs in Oregon, but @HillsboroPolice's Denise Lemen-Sipp and @PortlandPolice's Kristi Butcher don't consider themselves trailblazers. https://t.co/k5lbrPYvsn

"I've learned that we needed to work closer with city jurisdictions not only to meet communities' needs, but also try to get more volunteer services. Churches have stepped up tremendously to provide weather shelters, and that's a mainstay in a community." Thank you, Val! https://t.co/vCZZH3RSyF
