Land of Mt. Hood and the Source of the East Wind

A sunny day here in Gresham. But of course whenever it's sunny here in February, the east wind will be blowing like hell! And so it is! About 19 mph at the moment. Currently 56F as of about 1:00 PM PST. Same weather should continue for the next couple of days, with the temperature rising.

****I always thought the source of the east wind was Solly's camel, Fatima.
When they make love, she farts up a storm.

Currently 58F as of 12:15 PM here in sunny Gresham. Wind at 13 mph from the east. The wind let up some yesterday when Kim blew into town for our weekly luncheon. Up at Crown Point, about 10 miles east of here, where I grew up, there were gusts Tuesday of up to 66 mph!

Sure am seeing lots of empty storefronts around Gresham as I walk around town. Worse than it was a year ago.

A nice calm sunny day now here in Gresham, but clouds and rain are moving in. Currently 57F as of 12:30 PM PST. Was 62F yesterday.

I have been taking cans and bottles I've accumulated to the redemption center in Gresham, and then walking the mile or so to the library. Today I took a look at Gresham's war memorial park. I believe it's about where the feed store used to be, where my dad would buy feed for his milk cows. There was a little Chinese restaurant near there, and a fish and chips place. That was our Saturday night! I remember there being a boardwalk where the sidewalk is today. The ground slopes steeply down into a hollow there, but there is a park for the kids to play in down there today. Oh the memories!

A nice afternoon, after a morning of drizzle. Rained yesterday late afternoon, and all through the night. Now 55F as of 1:30 PM PST. Brisk wind out of the south at 9 mph.

A guy at Gresham's gold coin shop told me the owner died suddenly. Did the gold market take a bad turn? He is now going to use the place for a tool repair business.

Rain showers this afternoon with gusty wind out of the southwest up to 25 mph gusts. Intermittent sunshine and rain. 51F as of 2:15 PM here in Gresham. Was 54F earlier in the morning.

Gas is now $1.89 at the corner station. Looks like pretty soon they will be giving it away! But I have no car so it doesn't help me at all. Just gives the government an excuse not to raise Social Security at all while everything I have to pay for (things in the stores, rents, bus fares, etc.) keep going up.

Just got a call from the past, a girl I went to high school with! I had to ask her to call me back tonight, when I am not at the library.

Cloudy here in Gresham and 53F as of 1:15 PM PST. Calm.

The girl I went to high school with called back again last night. As I recall from class reunions, she was always very attractive! Already have a luncheon date pending for later in the week!

Girls my age are old bags. Eww


You should start being attracted to their character, Harlow, otherwise you have stunted development.

The girl from my high school days called me again just before I came over to the library today. Our date is for tomorrow at 1:00 PM.

Light clouds but dry and calm and 59F as of 12:45 PM PST here in Gresham today. A pleasant day.
