Still Freezing

We've had snow. We've had temperatures in the 20's. We've had bad road conditions and major traffic jams and we've just about had it. Up to here. Fed up! Tired of the chaos and inconvenience. After so many days in December without power and with major property damage, we are shell shocked. We're feeling like we are in a war zone.

But. We were able to get down to Portland for 2 days and to spend one of those days sightseeing in the beautiful Columbia River Gorge, which is, of course, not really the stuff of 'war zones.'.

The rest of the time we went shopping and eating and driving. This is how we usually spend our time off.

So maybe it's not so bad after all.


P.S. Happy Birthday Carl!
