Top of the Hill

Bar Yarn 2 of 2: A Dive Bar, Northwest Portland: 12/8/23

Juanita, who threatened to hunt me down and kill me if I displeased her “Big Sister,” was singing at the Top of The Hill bar at kareoke. As we waited in the car for Juanita to get her clothes out of her dryer, the Land Lady said, “I’m surprised you suggested this after she threatened you.”

“It was cute. Anybody who kills me does me a favor at this point.”
