That's a long day.

Say hello to the Oregon crew for me.
Yea, long day, but a good night's rest cures a lot.

Off for some breakfast, then over the Siskiyou's.

I'll probably just go out to the driveway and get about a 30 foot head start and run face first into the garage door.

I can't recommend that, although I don't suppose it could do any harm.

I do recommend chocolate cake. Candles optional.

Mornin' all!

Barbecue at Mark's place yesterday was an awesome get-together! They really put on the feed bag for friends up here! Great afternoon chatting truck mods and new ideas with some real knowledgeable folks. Marge and I had a real good time, and enjoyed a most warm welcome to Oregon by the guys.

Today we have to go up to the Portland airport to pick up four of our group that are flying in today, so it's a good thing I brought most of their luggage already, and we have a Sienna minivan to do it with.

Marge wants huckleberry pancakes for breakfast, so I guess we'll first head out toward Mount Hood this morning toward the Huckleberry Inn and enjoy 'em!

Belated birthday wishes to Steve and Gary! Hope your days was were well-enjoyed.

I hope you turned your sprinklers off, Marv. You're missing a nice soft rain today, and possibly tomorrow too. Rained a lot more than the boob tube led me to expect.

It's 45 degrees cooler today than last Monday!

I'm glad for that, but 35 degrees cooler would have been ok by me.

How many of you have HBO? Been watching Boardwalk Empire? We just finished episode 3 and it's been pretty good.

But I wanted to say, Steve Buschemi is one incredible actor. This is the first leading role I have seen him do. He is usually a character actor, but always steals the show I think.
