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

Sunny and hot here. Currently 87F as of 11:15 PM PDT here in sunny Gresham.. Possible high later in the day 100F! East wind blowing 13 mph.

Farmers market in session just outside.

There will probably be some firings from the Portland Public Schools over the lead and radon dangers. A couple people have already been suspended.

Meanwhile out in my old school district of Corbett, about 10 miles from here, it is fun and games as always! Their budget was just voted down, and there are accusations of the superintendent having a girlfriend on his staff he is paying a $75,000 salary! Things are tense! The school board and the public are not on the same page, and there is talk of recall, or an appeal to state authorities for help! What a mess! The schools have set high standards which have brought in lots of tuition paying students from out of district. It's one way to pay for the schools and keep them open, but it has caused a divide between the board and what local residents really want from the schools.

Again sunny and 86F as of 11:30 AM PDT here in Gresham. Expected high later 98F. Global warming seems to be proving itself at last! It is only early Jone.

Went across town yesterday to pick up some Korean food Kim bought for me. Actually the air conditioned MAX train wasn't a bad place to be in this 90+ degree weather.

Sunny again here in Gresham. As of 12:00 noon PDT it is 82F. Slightly cooler than yesterday. Probably will only make it to 90F, unlike yesterday's 97F.

Rose Festival time in Portland. They were lining the streets waiting for the Starlight Parade when I came through town last Saturday. Next Saturday will be the Grand Floral Parade. An air show will be coming up later.

Sun through clouds. Had a thunder storm last evening. Now 61F as of 11:00 PM here in Gresham.

I have been trying to get one of my old computers to work, but keyboard wouldn't work. Finally this morning I discovered I had damaged the prongs on the plug trying to plug it in from an awkward position. So I tried the keyboard from my other old computer and it worked fine! So I have completed step one of being able to access my old data. If I can access my old programs and brush up on my programming techniques, perhaps I can seek gainful employment! If so, the money could pile up real fast!

The Walmart here in Gresham is just one of those neighborhood grocery Walmarts. They don't sell computers. But there is a computer repair place here.. All I need for my old keyboard is a new cord. Maybe even just a plug. I found my computer tool kit, complete with soldering iron!

The other old computer I have is more powerful, but it is badly crippled with a virus. The directory has been corrupted and, back when I was using it, files kept disappearing. It needs a complete disk rebuild and restore.

A nice day here in Gresham. Currently 67F as of 12:30 PM PDT. The sun is shining! I still have to go fishing!
