Good evening Oregon and everyone everywhere else. Just finished giving the camper a bath. Got the trip to San Diego pretty well lined out. Flight and rental car on a tight schedule.
Have to wait until mid August. We have camping trips planned, then our live in house sitting son has a fishing trip planned to 10 mile Lake with friends and as soon as he gets home and can watch the house and the dogs, then I have a VA appointment and we'll go from the VAMC to the Airport. Then when we get home, another VA appointment and off to our home away from home - Diamond Lake for another 2 or 3 weeks.
HAHA - not everyone is fortunate to be working at 'retired". I envy those that are. Maybe someday... Looked like a god trip.
It's a very rough job, but someone has to do it!
It was a very good trip. Fishing has been better, but it still O.K.. Crater Lake was completely open this trip with no snow closures this trip.

Good morning Oregon, happy Hump Day! Well, survived the weekend, got the kid married off, and enjoyed my extra two days off. Glad that is over with, I was tired of hemorrhaging money!

On the other hand, it isn't the drivers fault. It is the fault of that idiot that snuck in there and built the building behind the car when the driver of the car wasn't looking!

Morning Ford Fans.
The weather guessers say we won't break 70° on the Coast today.

They are saying 94 for here, but that is based on the Rye Mountain Weather Station which is 1800 feet above us on Rye Mtn. Heat Advisory in effect until 2200 tonight. Here in the "hole" of the river bottom I'm betting a little warmer...
