A river runs through it....

And everyone talks about how the mighty Mississippi is so large and wide.

But, here is a view of the little old Columbia river looking north from Oregon to Washington.

Yes, that is one river and the mountain range you see way in the distance is truly Washington state.

And we have killer Seagulls that will take on anything in their path.

Pretty up there. Gulls are nasty little birds, and they fly!

PS: We always knew when the first snow was coming when I was a kid, because seagulls would flock onto the playing fields in back of my high school. They'd move inland, and we were like 20 mi south of Lake Erie - and yes, the Great Lakes have seagulls (and NO, you can't see Canada on the other side; it's a very big lake).

Busted yet again

Now that we are POD people and all, I have to clean out the crawl space under 1/2 our house. The problem with this is that I sort of let DW think that there was very little to nothing left down there. SHE FOUND OUT THAT THERE IS STILL A TON OF CRAP DOWN THERE. So now I'm picking up Cat crap as one of the furry little varmints started to live in the crawl space. I've moved out the eight pedal cars that were down there. I took what was left of the rafting/camping stuff over to fuzzballs place. And I really should call and tell him I did so, then again, maybe not. Now all I have to do is take down the shelves, finish taking the old store records out, and what else? Deck lid...check 6 boxes of toys...check road bike and trainer...check neon beer signs.....check old beer mirrors.....check raft and gear....check more old toys....double check Why is all of my crap in the crawl space? Don't answer as that was a rhetorical question. So in case I didn't mention this, we are movin...

I'm so over snow..

The Snow can melt now....Anything more than a dusting and I'm up to my butt in snow and it does get cold. So, here we are at the end of June and I'm still playing in the snow. The snow is still about 3-4' deep at the summit of HWY 410 in Washington. Looking East from the summit. Going up to the summit. And one should always know where they have been. And where they are going. And thanks to HWY 123 being closed, I had a 150 mile detour instead of the 30 miles on HWY 123. Can someone say "CRAP"
