Thank you Ron, so  far waking up this morning I'm seeing everyonein trouble an bit. Headlines say the fish at Bonneville Dam to MCNary Dam on the Columbia river are toxic..no more fishing from the area.

Three British people, three Italians and three members of the Venezuela Coast Guard were caught in  France, flying in 1.3 tons of Cocaine and got busted by Airport Security. Conservative guess on the street worth of this was $67 million dollars.

Never fear,,in our prestigious Lake Oswego area..known for it's fine homes of the wealthy....60 underaged teenagers were busted and cited, and one unconscious female taken to the hospital for drinking. Quite an expensive party be had by now to everyone whom attended it.  

It says that now all the illegals whom came here in years past have went back home now for lack of jobs...back to Mexico...rather then starve I guess like we middle americans are asked to do from our Government...but they can't seem to balance budgets and give up their luxury cars for an few years to help things. But those here havegiven an rise in figures anyway from 11.3 million to 11.7 million but nothing like the peak of 2007 when there were 12.7 million crossing our boarders illegally so we could support them eventually in some way, if not through government help, it was through the crimesthey commited.to stay alive while here.  Naturally they all didn't go back home...by any means. Most likely the drug cartel has hired and few thousands for an loaf of bread. But anyway, they think they finally have the border crossings stopped...I laugh...cause I very much doubt it. But our economy is really really that bad and the money to had out free much of anything is getting slimmer as the days goes by from the Government. They have fairly well bankrupt our local services, our hosptials, and our schools form coming up here. Crime is at an ll time high..esp stealing food now. This summer whole flats of watermelons were hauled off out in front of an store and what amazes me is they don't care they are being watched from an security camera.

OK, that leaves the subject of the earthquake just happened...and 7.8 quake on the Pakistan border...your really need to go to Earthquake-Reports.com to see the island that is quake has risen up in the sea south of this area over there.  It happened in an very remote area but casualties are still coming in..so far 125 people killed. If you go to the web site, you'll get an chance to see the island in an picture..they said about 50 some people watched it up come out of the water.  Now if that isn't freaky I don't know what is. This kind of goes with an "vision" message of what I was told by God some years back, that he's had it with the drugs, booze and child abuse...and those participating in it..... will come to ruine by his hands in the future...that was maybe some five years ago I was told this...expect judgement.Just the 2,000 lightening strikes we have been having this summer across the state...not once.... but several times... is enough for me to sit up and take notice.  They have crossed most the areas where the vineyards are growing now.

So in ways there are elements facing deep "do-do" this morning.

I'll think I'll go back to washing clothes for an bit and try to live decently..it might help. I am going to really miss my salmon dinners, even if they are safe to eat.... the price will sky rocket to being unaffordable. Have an good day everyone.

I am about ready to get ran out of my house tonight this first fire of the season in the fireplace is to hot...I used 3 presto logs and when they burned down thought I'd use 6 of the eco-bricks....I should of used half of them in the bundle of six, cooled down the fire an bit with some water...it never was "flaming" just incredibly hot. But I see Miss Kitty is back in the chair, so things must be OK...they are dying down for tonight also. Today it was 34 degrees at timberline Lodge at Mt. Hood and the first snow of the season there also. So..it's started...trees are not all the way into autumn colors but the maples are now. Flowers grass, and trees are coming back in green from the parched burned look.... from the hot days an month ago or so. I go for now, clothes dryer making an racket...I think it needs an new fan belt. Sent my washed clothes out to my daughter in-law to dry for me tonight. Always something......wish it would stop. Hope tomarrow is an better day maybe.

Evening everyone Smile

I am John thank you, I don't think the weather there is too good at the moment, but there is time for it to improve by next Tuesday - hopefully. We had just over three weeks on unbroken sunshine in June/July so we can't complain too much.
