The noisy people were being cared for at government expense. 51F here in Gresham as of 11:30 AM, on its way to 57F. Sunshine with some clouds. Mostly dry. The Library is quiet today on this Sunday morning. Unfortunately this library does not have as many books as the Tigard Library. And they are less strict on noise control. At Tigard if your cell phone rang, they would pounce on you right away! Just get a cheap ass tablet. A 7" tablet. Makes reading a pleasure. Can be had for $75.00 *** Only in America ... a homeless dumpster diver, who has to use the Public Library System for his Internet access and who has a cell phone ... and now on his way to a 7" tablet ... I wonder how the really poor are getting along ... I don't know, but as soon as I get my welfare checks coming in, I'll be visiting my Cadillac dealership. Double-A AA Lots can be done to make the homeless more comfortable .Hate mongers would call it a waste of money.In the N.E. in winter they could sleep on water beds that are full with warm water. My grandfather took a water bottle to bed.GOPers will say "Where"s the Money" TreBert Bert, someday when I am President, everyone will have a place to place to stay and food to eat. And education will be free. Why not? We are all one big family. Yesterday I went back to Tanasbourne, saw Kim briefly, then visited my locker and brought back a suitcase full of stuff including a security box I can store my bullion in. Rained all yesterday afternoon and evening. Today the sun is back, and we are on a drying trend. Currently only 49F in Gresham as of 1:00 PM on its way to only 51F, but we are to expect warmer weather later in the week which might hit 70F! Double-A AA Getting hot here. I'm in shorts. All sun no cloud.Staying in Anaheim till 21st. Lawyer called me yesterday he heard my operation was NG,and wanted to know if he could be of help? I told him to call back in a month. I am busy now going into phase II with M&M.Will spend big $$$$ on adds. Pain or no pain I have to get going.The time is "NOW" Phase II is airlines ,cruise ships,and going to Vegas to do there motels. Trebert More power to you, Bert. Seize the day! All sunny and blue skies here in Gresham now. 60F as of 12:45 PM and rising to near 70F later. The warming trend is here. Don't know why library is more crowed today. Maybe because the don't open until 12 on Thursdays. Double-A |

The Community College has put up a sign at that corner and surrounded it with rocks and other landscaping. But no sign of the historic mile stone. You would think that the administrators of a college of all people would have some respect for history! Double-A Thanks AA Lets see what this ugly deaf old man can do?

Another lovely springlike day here in Gresham. Lots of sunshine! 65F now at 1:30 PM on its way to 73F.

My health has improved, since I stopped doing all the things they told me to do at the clinic. Another nice spring day here in Gresham. Sunny and 60F as of 11:30 AM. On the way to high seventies later. Yesterday I explored the old cemetery down by Stark St. that remember seeing as a boy from the car as we drove by. The same old gravel road still goes in, abutted by a fence separating it from the newly developed paved streets and houses, and apartments. A sign says "Mt. View Stark, Oregon Historic Cemetery, Est. 1886." I did however find one gravestone marked 1880. There is one older house right next to the cemetery, but I don't think it was there when I was a boy, because I remember the view as unobstructed. Found many burials from the late 18 hundreds and early 19 hundreds. It is a small cemetery. But what I was surprised to see was that there have also been recent burials, quite a few since 2000. A young Russian man was buried as recently as 2013. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/mt-vi...XxFCAT8yHHkBYQ I didn't see anybody I had known. There was one very fresh grave not yet marked with a permanent stone. It was probably this girl: http://www.mtscottfuneralhome.com/me...er_id=1525440# One woman's marker said, "It was a hell of a ride, now I wait for you." Not sure why people still want to be buried in such an obscure pioneer cemetery. In evidence with this state's now fanatical obsession to prohibit smoking, a sign at the cemetery read, "This is a no smoking zone." As if anyone in that cemetery would really mind! Double-A |

Windy,sunny about 82 Have not seen a cloud in over a week. Parking at hospital,and its working out well.Lots of hot water,pretty nurses.It has a lousy cafeteria .Been doing some cooking with mirrors. Its fun,and I'm trying to do it handerly. TreBert |
