A few sprinkles today didn't hinder our tractor club meeting. About 29 people showed up and ate tri tip, baked potato, and salad. We ran some engines and one of the guys belted up his tractor to a buzz saw and ran it for a while. Long day since I helped set up and clean up afterward.

Good morning Oregon and everyone everywhere else. 28.6 and it is CLEAR! Just a couple of dinky, wispy clouds lit up pink by the sun that hadn't made it up over the
Cascades just yet. The "orb" is starting to make its appearance now.




Wayne, sounds like you had a good day yesterday with the Tractor club.

Have you or your Dad spent enough time over there to know the area you'd want to retire or just move to? If I stay in Oregon, I think I would buy in the LaGrande area at some point.

If we didn't have the 300 acre Family Trust and Pioneer Farm, Kids and Grandkids around here, and we decided to "get out of Dodge", we would probably land in the La Pine area pretty darn quickly.

LaPine = A lot of snow, 9months of winter temps and weather along with hail storms in the short summer. But there is a Bi-Mart there and it is close to the great Oregon Outback!(Hwy31).

Belated good morning Oregon FTE and Visitors.
Mike, my Dad will need to find some place with good medical reasonable close.
Funny you mention The Oregon Outback, my Grandparents used to live in Christmas Valley took a bit of vacation out there.

Good evening Oregon FTE and Visitors.
Nice sunny day to do some more work on the van, this time something a little more fun installed driving lights.
