Morning guys, took a trip over to Portland yesterday, had Allen Jr and the two boys with us. Went to the race track and ran a lew laps. We bew up one engine in Allen Jr 's oldest boys car and had to repalce it. He did not get to run very many laps though; started to rain by the time the new engine was installed. As we were leaving the track, my other sons van blow a by pass hose and low all the water. I at the time of the van problem was driving the Booger truck with the trailer back to my sons house and the altenator went out and had to drive her about 20 miles on battery power alone. It was a odd day all in all. Drove home about midnight, it was snowing hard on Hood too. Glad to be home and ready to watch the race!!!

As long as there are no weak tree limbs, shallow route bases close to any structures, it sounds like a good excuse to just stay inside and watch the race.

Sounds like that trip to P town was pretty hard on equipment!

Yep, been watching the trees out the front sway back and forth, calm right now though.

Portland driving is hard on me and the equipment. Allen Jr was driving the truck out to the track when he saw a woman breast feeding a baby going down I84 passing him!!!

I've got about a 70ft Doug Fir down back in the woods, we are having some pretty good wind and rain...........Oh, well...more firewood.

The McKenzie has risen about 2ft since yesterday, and the rapids in front of the house are GONE!
