no problem, wish we could be there; but here with the flooding many of the roads here are almost impassable: we are heading out in 3 hours to spend monies we don't have .......... 8)
 
friend I sit on a hill so am safe. the current tv media is covering California which is getting nailed but nothing like southern Oregon. the media covers obviously large population centers for good reason we on the other hand are in a remote very hilly area and full of creek drainages. the river has swept it's banks clean in spots, parts of homes are going down the river, roofs decks and saunas, parts of vehciles, bikes, etc ......... the worst problem is the closure of roads due to all the mud-earth slides. portion of our southern Oregon coastline has been closed for a week and it appears if more is coming and it is, the hwy 101 may well fall off into the ocean.

life is fun here at the moment. As I said earlier on other threads a nice dry cold front would help matters as the ground is permeated and I am literally expecting multi-million dollar homes on the west hills to fall off at any time

Twice a week, Adler...that is why I didn't like the fact I missed out on x-mas eve!
 
I work the rest of the week, or haven't you caught on to that yet? Twice a week keeps me sane.

That happened with a couple of homes down at the Gold Coast during a wet spell. House sitting on a hill one minute, half of it tumbling down the hill the next...
