Morning guys. Chris, they put down so much damn salt here, the roads melt off as fast as the snow can fall, usually. Big surprise that my 06 is rusting away.

Pat ODOT and PDOT started using salt in the Portland area two years ago. The salt we deal with is in the air from the Pacific Ocean but as long as you don't drive on the beach it doesn't do the damage you get.

Good evening Oregon and everyone everywhere else. Got home from the RV show in Salem a little bit ago. Saw some very nice and very expensive RV's. Weather was nice. They had RV's in the two large commercial buildings at the State Fair Grounds and had a whole bunch of them outside. Lot's and Lot's of RV's to look at.

Good evening Oregon and everyone everywhere else. Boat floats. Watching the Olympics now.
Floated on Devils Lake for a while this afternoon spying on the backyards of the Rich buy maybe not so famous. A million dollars worth of big Traeger Stoves. Too early in the year and still too cool for the bikini's and parties.
